Yerba Mate Latte

teas.co.uk · 8 min · Serves 1

You'll need

• 2 pyramid tea bags of Teapigs Yerba Mate (for concentrate)
• 100ml freshly drawn water cooled to 80C
• 180ml barista oat milk
• 1 teaspoon agave syrup

Method

1. Warm your mug. Boil the kettle, then let it come down to around 80C for the mate; a thermometer or a kettle heat setting makes it easy.
2. Steep two pyramid bags in just 100ml of the cooled water for five minutes, covered, for a strong concentrate.
3. Lift out the bags, press gently, and stir the agave into the concentrate.
4. Heat the oat milk until steaming but not boiling, and froth until smooth.
5. Pour the concentrate into the mug and top with the frothed oat milk.
6. Tip: keep the water off the boil; mate brewed too hot turns bitter and the milk will not hide it.
