1

Gather Your Ingredients

To make a vegan Charcoal Latte, you will need: 1 teaspoon of food-grade activated charcoal powder, 1 cup of your favorite plant-based milk (almond, soy, oat, or coconut work well), 1-2 teaspoons of sweetener (such as maple syrup or agave), and 1-2 shots of espresso or 1 cup of strong brewed coffee.

2

Mix the Charcoal Powder

In a small bowl, combine the activated charcoal powder with a splash of water. Mix well until it forms a smooth paste. This will help prevent any clumps of charcoal in your latte.

3

Warm Up the Milk

Pour the plant-based milk into a saucepan and heat it on low-medium heat. Stir occasionally to prevent scorching. Heat until the milk is hot but not boiling.

4

Add the Charcoal and Sweetener

Once the milk is warm, whisk in the charcoal paste and sweetener. Continue whisking until the charcoal is fully incorporated and the milk turns a dark, velvety color.

5

Brew the Espresso or Coffee

While the milk is warming up, brew a shot of espresso or prepare a cup of strong coffee. If using pre-made espresso or coffee, simply warm it up.

6

Combine and Serve

Pour the brewed espresso or coffee into a mug, then carefully pour the charcoal-infused milk on top. Give it a gentle stir to ensure everything is well mixed. Enjoy your vegan Charcoal Latte!
