🧂 Ingredients

• 1 small cooked beet (or 2–3 tbsp beet puree)
• 1 cup milk
• 1 tsp honey
• ½ tsp vanilla extract
• ¼ tsp ground cinnamon
• a pinch of ground cardamom
• frothed milk or coconut cream
• a dusting of cinnamon or beet powder

📖 Instructions

💗 Prepare beet base
If using a whole cooked beet, blend it with 1–2 tablespoons of the milk until smooth. If using beet puree, you can skip this step.

🔥 Heat the mixture
In a small saucepan, combine the beet puree, remaining milk, sweetener, vanilla, and spices. Gently heat over medium-low, whisking continuously until warm and well combined (don’t let it boil).

🫧 Blend (for frothiness)
For a café-style texture, pour the heated mixture into a blender and blend for 10–15 seconds until frothy. Alternatively, use a milk frother.

🍵 Serve
Pour into your favorite mug. Top with frothed milk or foam, and dust with cinnamon or beet powder for a lovely finish.
