Prep Time 5 minutes
Cook Time 20 minutes
Total Time 25 minutes

Ingredients

  • 6 oz Roasted Pistachios
  • 1 cup Sugar
  • 1 cup Brown Sugar
  • 3 cup Water
  • 2 shots Espresso
  • 8 oz Milk

Instructions

  • Add the pistachios and water into a high speed blender, and blend until the pistachios are finely chopped and mixed well with the water.
  • Add the pistachio and water mixture into a medium sauce pan with the brown sugar and regular sugar. Turn on medium low heat, and stir until the sugar has dissolved.
  • Let the mixture simmer for about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Turn off the stove, and add in the almond extract.
  •  Let the mixture cool, and if you would like no tiny pistachio pieces in your pistachio syrup, run it through cheese cloth before storing it in a quart sized jar. I don't mind the tiny pieces!

To Make Your Pistachio Latte:

  • Add 1-2 tbsp of your pistachio syrup to your mug, or more depending on how sweet you want. There's really no set rules here.
  • Pull 1-2 shots of espresso over your syrup.
  • Steam your 8oz of milk, and pour it over the espresso and syrup. Enjoy!!

Notes

  • If your pistachios are unsalted, then add a pinch of salt to this recipe!
  • If you would like an iced latte, then instead of steaming your milk, pour your espresso shots and syrup over ice, and then pour your milk of choice.
