Hi!! Since my early decision apps are done, I have some extra time this week. More time= More food right?. Usually, yes, but I’m switching things up a bit this week. How about a drink?! Beer Latte anyone?

I’ll admit, this idea isn’t mine.

The idea may be Starbuck’s, but that didn’t mean I couldn’t make my own (slightly) healthier and cheaper version. Well, let’s get brewing

Ingredients

•  1/2 cup beer
• 1.5 cups milk of choice
• 1 packet instant expresso
• Sweetener, to taste
• 2 egg whites for “foam”, optional ( whipped topping or steamed milk also works)

Directions

Combine beer, milk, expresso and sweetener in a saucepan. Bring to a gentle boil, then reduce heat and simmer until alcohol burns off. Place in a blender and blend on high for about a minute until frothy. Add topping of choice

If using egg whites, follow the “nitro brew” instructions here

[\recipe]

Tip: Use a dark beer like Chimay. This will provide a deeper, richer flavor.

I hope everyone has a chance try out this delicious, comforting drink as the temperatures finally drop. Have a great week!
