Caveman Cuisine: Coco-latte
If you've decided to ditch dairy, but still crave your morning jolt of caffeine, you need to try this Paleo-friendly version of the cafe classic.
Ingredients:
1 cup brewed coffee (I like to get all Martha Stewarty and add a little ground chicory to the ground coffee)
1/4 cup (3-4 tbsp) unsweetened full-fat coconut milk
1/4 cup unsweetened coconut or almond milk (the kind found in cardboard cartons)
Dash cinnamon
Directions:
Using a small blender (like the wonderful "Magic Bullet") or a shaker jar (or just a jar with a lid) whip the full-fat coconut milk and coconut/almond milk.
Add whipped coconut milk mixture to brewed coffee and top with a dash of cinnamon. You could also try a dash of Unsweetened Cocoa Powder as well!
Don't forget to serve in an healthy and environmentally friendly ceramic coffee mug too!
Yield:“A little chicory perks up the taste of roasted coffee beans; it’s a good thing.” (Bonus points if you can guess the reference!)

Let me recommend -- if you're not familiar with it, -- the Aerobie Aeropress for making your coffee (it makes Mike Eade's cafe Americano, actually; water it down to your depth preference). I feel a bit like a mad chemist, but OMG the coffee is superb! (Not affiliated or associated, just in love!)
