Sweet and Warming Sweet Potato & Persimmon Latte
A Nourishing Fall Drink: Sweet Potato and Persimmon Latte
As the weather turns crisp, a warm sweet potato latte is the perfect way to find comfort. It’s incredibly satisfying, warming you from the inside out, bringing a sense of pure happiness. Enjoy this delightful autumn treat.
Main Ingredients- 1 steamed sweet potato (medium size, approx. 150-200g)
- 1 ripe, soft persimmon (Fuyu or Hachiya, very ripe and jelly-like)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, prepare one steamed sweet potato and one ripe, soft persimmon. Peel the skin off the steamed sweet potato cleanly. For the persimmon, gently peel off its skin and remove any seeds if present. (The skin of a ripe persimmon is thin and can be easily peeled by hand.)
Step 2
Place the prepared steamed sweet potato and persimmon into a blender. Add 1 cup (200ml) of milk. If you prefer a thinner consistency for your latte, you can add an extra 1/4 cup of milk. However, it’s best to start with 1 cup to avoid making it too watery.
Step 3
Securely fasten the lid of the blender. Blend for about 30 seconds to 1 minute, or until all ingredients are smoothly pureed. Ensure there are no lumps of sweet potato remaining and that you achieve a uniformly creamy texture.
Step 4
Pour the blended latte into a glass or mug. For an extra aromatic touch, sprinkle a pinch of cinnamon powder on top, enhancing the latte’s rich flavor. If you’d like to enjoy your latte warm, gently heat it in the microwave for about 30 seconds to 1 minute. (Be careful not to overheat, as the milk might boil over.) This sweet potato and persimmon latte is a wonderfully smooth and sweet beverage, perfect for anyone to enjoy as a delightful autumn drink.
