Notes
Both of these recipes can easily be made vegan by substituting regular milk with dairy-free milk. Oat milk is my personal preference. Barista blends make the best foam! You may need to adjust the sweetness depending on what type of milk you use as some milks are naturally sweeter than others.
Remember to replace honey with vegan-friendly maple syrup or a little brown sugar.
