Palm Sugar/Jaggery Latte

Palm Sugar Jaggery Latte Recipe | Milk and Cardamom

Palm sugar aka Jaggery aka Gur is an unrefined sugar used in India and many other southeast Asian countries. It can be made from a various variety of palm tree and is a renewable source of sugar! Palm sugar syrup is used as a sweetener in Malaysia and I was inspired to make a warm milky drink with it! You can make a double batch of the syrup and save it for any future drinks as well!

I think what brings me the most joy from this drink is all that foamy milk! I use a spiral whisk to froth my milk but if you have a milk frother, you can use that instead. You can use espresso, coffee or strongly brewed chai depending on your caffeine needs!
