The winter months make me long for warming drinks, and wellness lattes are my favorite way to lift a cozy vibe. Combined with the slowness of the season, these lattes are my go-to way to add more comfort to my day. For me, flavor is key, and I like to use whole, fresh ground spices to make each drink truly satisfying.
Each of these wellness lattes—Tahini Ashwagandha Latte, Chai Masala Hot Chocolate, and Doodh Masala—is designed as a single serving, perfect for those quiet mornings or quiet evenings when you just want to unwind. I like to approach latte making with a little flexibility, tasting and adjusting as I go to match whatever I’m craving at the moment. So, while these recipes are a great start, feel free to have fun with them and make them your own!

Tahini Ashwagandha Latte
This recipe is perfect for a cool evening drink. With a nutty and slightly sweet flavor, it’s my go-to during the winter months.
Ingredients needed: milk of choice, tahini, maple syrup, ashwagandha, pinch of salt, vanilla extract
Chai Masala Hot Chocolate
Think of this as the flavors of masala chai in chocolate form. This hot chocolate has an amazing depth of flavor from the spices while still satisfying my chocolate cravings. It’s as cool on a cold night as it is in the morning for something sweet.
Ingredients needed: cinnamon stick, star anise, cardamom pods, cloves, black peppercorns, optional milk, optional sweetener, cocoa powder
Dood Masala
Filled with warming spices and ground nuts, doodh masala (milk masala) is a taste of growth for me. It’s perfect for those looking for a caffeine-free drink who still feel especially grateful for the spice. Feel free to experiment with nut and spice ratios based on what flavor you like best and make a batch of these ahead of time to add a spoonful to your hot milk any day.
Ingredients needed: raw unsalted pumpkin seeds, unsalted raw almonds, raw cashews, unsalted green pistachios, cardamom seeds, fennel seeds, nutmeg, saffron, granulated sugar, pinch of salt
