Cooking Instructions
Step 1
[Make the Blueberry Mojito] First, prepare the mojito ingredients: cut the lime in half to extract its juice and wash the mint leaves. In a sturdy mortar or the bottom of a glass, combine the frozen blueberries, lime wedges, and mint leaves. Gently muddle them using a muddler or pestle until their fragrant oils are released.
Step 2
Fill the glass with the muddled ingredients generously with ice cubes. Pour in the blueberry concentrate, sweet honey, and white rum in succession. Finally, carefully top it off with sparkling soda water to complete your refreshing blueberry mojito. Stir gently with a spoon to ensure all ingredients are well combined.
Step 3
[Make the Sweet Potato Latte] The ‘nudie ice sweet potatoes’ used here are already peeled, making them convenient to use. Place the sweet potatoes in the microwave and heat for about 1-2 minutes until slightly warm. This helps them blend more smoothly in the blender. Be careful not to overheat, as they might burn.
Step 4
Add the warmed sweet potatoes, sweet honey, and fresh milk to a blender. Blend until all ingredients are completely smooth and creamy. You can adjust the amount of milk to achieve your desired consistency.
Step 5
Pour the smoothly blended sweet potato latte into a charming cup. Lightly sprinkle a pinch of aromatic cinnamon powder on top for added flavor, and garnish with a few chewy sweet potato snacks for a delightful texture. This creates a homemade sweet potato latte that rivals any cafe’s offering. Enjoy it warm or cold!
