This honey cinnamon latte is one of those drinks I make when I want my morning to feel calm, cozy, and a little elevated, without doing the most. It’s lightly sweet, warm, and comforting in the best way. Honestly, it tastes like something you’d order at your favorite coffee spot… just made at home.
I love that it’s made with clean simple ingredients, no syrups and nothing artificial because who doesn’t want to start their day that way? This latte stays on repeat for me.

What You’ll Need:
- 2 shots of freshly brewed espresso
- 8 oz whole milk (or milk of choice)
- 11/2 tablespoon honey (plus more if you like it sweeter)
- A dash of ground cinnamon
How I Make It (Hot):
- Brew your double shot of espresso.
- Steam your milk until warm and slightly frothy.
- In your mug, add the honey and a dash of cinnamon.
- Pour in the freshly brewed espresso and stir until the honey fully dissolves.
- Slowly add your steamed milk.
- Taste and add more honey if needed.
- Finish with a light sprinkle of cinnamon on top.
Iced Latte Option
If you’re making this iced, start the same way:
- Add the honey and cinnamon to your glass.
- Pour in the hot espresso and stir really well so the honey fully dissolves.
- Next add ice.
- Finish with your milk of choice and give it a gentle stir.
Same lite flavor, just iced and perfect for warmer mornings.
A Few Tips That Make It Even Better:
- Start with fresh espresso beans if you can, it really does make a difference in flavor.
- Warm your mug before adding anything in so it keeps your latte hot longer.
- Use good-quality honey since it’s the main sweetener in addition you get the extra health benefits.
- Don’t skip stirring the espresso with the honey first. That’s the key to getting everything smooth.
- For extra foam at home, a handheld frother can work just as well as a machine.
It’s lite, cozy, and just sweet enough, the kind of latte you sip slowly while getting ready or easing into your day. Nothing complicated, just really good coffee.
If you try this latte, it just may become your new go-to.
