When hubby and I traveled to Boston a few summers ago, we stumbled upon the greatest bakery in the world – Tatte Bakery & Cafe. The Middle Eastern-inspired menu had our hearts. So you can imagine our thrill when Tatte came to Washington D.C. We were ecstatic! Many other locations have opened since then, and the bakery definitely has a following – rightfully so.

A must-have menu item is the House Latte. It is the coziest, most savory latte I’ve ever had with a hint of sweetness. But when the mornings are cool and the leaves begin to change – that is when this latte really shines. I could have one every single day.

And now I can. Tatte’s house latte is a Honey Halva Cardamom creation and after a few tries, and months of debating whether or not it is easy enough to whip up at home, I made it. And it worked.

Equipment You’ll Need:

A moka pot or espresso maker

Espresso blend coffee

Milk frother & steamer

How to Make a Honey Halva Cardamom Latte

Ingredients:

4 oz espresso
1 tsp ground cardamom
1 cup milk
2 Tbsp halva
1/3 Tbsp Hibernate Honey syrup

In a blender, combine milk and halva and pulse until creamy.
Combine ground espresso and cardamom, and brew using a Mokapot or espresso maker
Pour espresso into a mug and stir in Hibernate Honey syrup
Froth and steam halva milk and pour over espresso

Enjoy!

It is simple, creamy, and absolutely delicious. Once you have the method down, making a latte at home is one of the best ways to warm up from the inside out! While it isn’t exactly like the liquid gold you can find at Tatte Bakery & Cafe, it is really darn close (and much closer than an hour drive away!).

Key notes

Bring the halva up to room temperature before blending.
Combine the ground espresso and cardamom before adding to the Moka pot for a more even flavor and brew
