Directions
Step 1: Prepare the Spiced Pear Base
Begin by peeling and cubing the pears. If you're using whole pears, place them in a saucepan and cook over medium heat for about 20 minutes until they become fork-tender. If you're using puréed pears, simply warm them in the saucepan and skip Step 2.
Step 2: Purée the Pears
For whole pears, transfer them to a food processor or blender and purée them until smooth.
Step 3: Spice it Up
In a mixing bowl, combine the pear purée with brown sugar, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and ground ginger. This mixture forms the flavorful spiced pear base that gives the latte its unique taste.
Step 4: Prepare your Ember Mug
Before brewing your espresso and steaming the milk, scoop 1/4 cup of the spiced pear base into your Ember Mug 2.
Step 5: Sweeten the Deal
Drizzle honey around the sides of your Ember Mug 2, adding a delightful sweetness to the drink.
Step 6: Combine the Flavors
Brew 1-2 shots of espresso and pour your freshly brewed espresso into your Mug. Gently stir until the spiced pear base blends seamlessly with your coffee.
Step 7: The Latte Pour
Steam your milk and execute your latte pour.
This aromatic and sweet latte combines the warmth of spiced pears with the rich flavors of coffee, creating a beverage that's perfect for any occasion this season. With the convenience of preparing multiple servings of the spiced pear base in advance, you can enjoy this treat whenever the craving strikes. So, why not brew a steaming cup of this delectable latte in your Ember Mug.
