Tis the season for chestnuts roasting on an open fire and Jack Frost nipping at your nose. I get all the feels during this time of year and have been enjoying every minute of it! We've already put the Christmas tree up and decorated the house. For the first time ever, we have a fireplace, so it feels extra cozy.
I can't think of a better way to spend a winter morning than sipping on this creamy, hot, and delicious Chestnut Praline Latte. No synthetic syrups here - I'm using chestnut purees that we bought from Eataly, imported straight from Italy. The chestnut puree is infused with vanilla and has that glorious hint of nuttiness to it. Yummy! Here is my recipe tutorial on how to make it. Now you can enjoy the flavors of the Holidays throughout the year!
