Heat the milk in a small saucepan at medium heat. You can use a handheld frother at this point to create foam in your milk.
1 1/2 cup (354.9 ml) milk of choice
Add the rest of the ingredients: maca in powder form, coconut sugar, cinnamon, and vanilla extract, and mix until all of the ingredients are well combined. Serve immediately.
1 teaspoon maca root powder, 2 tablespoon coconut sugar, 1/4 teaspoon (0.3 teaspoon) ground cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon (0.5 teaspoon) vanilla extract

Add-ins and substitutions for this golden maca latte

1. Coconut Sugar: If you don't have coconut sugar on hand, you can substitute it with pure maple syrup or a bit of honey. These alternatives will still provide a natural sweetness to your latte.
2. Maca Coffee: To turn your maca latte into a coffee-flavored version, simply add a shot of espresso. This will give your latte a rich coffee taste while retaining the maca's health benefits.
3. Chocolate Maca: If you want a chocolate twist, mix in some cocoa powder. It will add chocolate flavor to your maca latte, creating a different flavor profile.
4. Coconut Maca: To infuse a hint of coconut flavor, stir in a tablespoon coconut oil (preferably mct oil). This will provide healthy fats and antioxidant properties.
5. Green Tea Maca: For a green tea-infused maca latte, steep a green tea bag in your hot milk for about 3 minutes, then add the rest of your maca latte ingredients. This will give your latte a soothing green tea flavor along with the benefits of maca.
