Coconut Hemp Latte

If you've cut our dairy entirely or temporarily, milk and coffee creamer might be two items you are missing. If you've cut on processed sugars too, then its pretty much impossible to find a creamer for your coffee. I have made a couple different versions with different milks: coconut milk, almond milk, etc. Also different flavorings: hazelnut, coconut, cocoa, vanilla. This is my go-to hemp latte because it is easy and fast to make. You can make extra hemp mixture and use it in your coffee that next day too!
