making a latte with peanut butter

Ingredients

• 2 tablespoon Peanut Butter (smooth, natural peanut butter; 1 tbsp for sauce, 1 tbsp for latte swirl)
• 1 tablespoon Water (room‑temperature water for sauce)
• 1 ounce Espresso (freshly pulled espresso shot (about 30 ml))
• 8 ounce Milk (any milk of choice; whole milk gives richest texture)
• 1 cup Ice Cubes (filled in a tall glass for a chilled latte)
• 1 teaspoon Mocha Sauce (chocolate (mocha) sauce for drizzling inside the glass; adds a Reese’s‑like vibe)

Instructions

1. Make Peanut Butter Sauce

   Combine 1 tablespoon of peanut butter with 1 tablespoon of water in a microwave‑safe bowl. Microwave for 30 seconds, then stir until smooth. If the sauce is too thick, add a few more drops of water and stir again.

   Time: PT1M

2. Pull Espresso Shot

   Brew a single 1‑ounce espresso shot using your espresso machine or strong coffee maker. Set aside while you finish the glass preparation.

   Time: PT1M

3. Prepare the Glass

   Take a tall glass and drizzle the inside walls with the mocha sauce, letting it coat the interior for a subtle chocolate ribbon.

   Time: PT30S

4. Assemble the Latte

   Fill the glass with ice cubes, pour in the milk, then slowly add the espresso shot over the peanut butter sauce. The hot espresso will melt the sauce, creating a swirl of peanut butter throughout the drink.

   Time: PT1M

5. Finish and Serve

   Give the latte a gentle stir to combine all layers, then enjoy immediately. Optionally, top with a light drizzle of extra mocha sauce or a pinch of cocoa powder.
