Steamed milk vs Frothed milk

Frothed milk is steamed milk that has been given a bit more air so that it now holds a foam bath on top. So your mug will have a warm almond milk base and be topped with a frothy foam up on top to give you a truly relaxing and inviting appearance.

Ingredients

Honey
Unsweetened Almond Breeze almond milk

How to Make Steamed Almond Milk and Honey

Place one tablespoon of honey into your drinking mug and then set it aside.
In a saucepan over medium heat, warm the almond milk together with a cinnamon stick.
Heat until the milk has bubbles around the edges but do not allow it to come to a full boil.
Remove the pot from the heat and let rest for one minute.
Place the milk into a blender and add in the vanilla.
Remove the center of the top of the blender and place a towel over it so that the steam can escape, but it won’t make a mess.
Blend for a few seconds to create a nice frothy texture.
Pour the frothy milk over the top of the honey in your mug and then stir to combine.
Top with some nutmeg for garnish if desired.

FAQs

What are the benefits of almond milk and honey?

Almond milk is a great dairy-free alternative drink that is packed with nutritious benefits such as being low in fat, high in energy, proteins, and fiber. It also has a lot of calcium and potassium. Honey is rich in antioxidants and when you’re sick, honey can work as a cough suppressant, making this drink good for you even when you are feeling under the weather.

How do you steam almond milk on the stove?

Add the almond milk to a pot and leave it to heat up gradually. You do not want it to burn. Once there are bubbles around the edges and it is hot to the touch use a milk frother to create a frothy texture on top of the milk. This will prevent you from needing to use the blender for a similar effect. Using a whisk and stirring vigorously may also work.

What type of almond milk should I use?

You can use any type of flavor of almond milk desired. I like to use unsweetened almond milk for this recipe but even chocolate almond milk or sweetened vanilla would work out wonderfully.
