Apple Orchard Latte (Oil-Soluble) | Fall Recipe with Dave’s Flaves

From Dave: Apple Latte, the Way I Make It

Leaves underfoot. Steam curling off the cup.
That first sip—warm cinnamon, then bright, just-picked apple, finishing smooth.

No candy aftertaste. No artificial edge. Just clean orchard character that plays beautifully with dairy or barista-style plant milks.

When I designed our oil-soluble concentrates, this is exactly what I wanted them to do: ride the fat in milk for rounder aroma, fuller texture, and a finish that feels crafted—not manufactured.

What You’ll Taste

Fresh apple first. Bright, juicy top notes that open into a gentle “baked-apple” warmth.
Real fall spice. Cinnamon with a whisper of nutmeg.
Canadian backbone. A hint of maple—not too sweet, just enough to taste like home.

Recipe (12 oz / 355 mL)

Prep: 3 min Total: 5 min Skill: Easy

You’ll Need

  • 1 double espresso (or 90–120 mL strong coffee)

  • 240 mL milk (whole dairy or barista oat/almond)

  • 1–2 tsp maple syrup (to taste)

  • ⅛ tsp cinnamon + tiny pinch nutmeg

  • Dave’s Flaves Oil-Soluble Apple

    • Premium Strength: 1 drop

    • (Our concentrates are built for precise, low-volume dosing—adjust by a drop to dial in your house profile.)

Method

  1. Steam your milk to ~60–65 °C.

  2. Build the base: Add maple, spices, and your apple drops to the mug.

  3. Add espresso and give a quick swirl.

  4. Pour and finish: Add milk, then microfoam. Dust with cinnamon. Sip and enjoy.

Pro tip:
Working with ultra-lean milk? Pre-mix the drops into 1 tsp warm milk before adding. Oil-soluble disperses better this way in low-fat systems.

Make It Yours

  • Apple–Pear Crumble: 1 drop Oil-Soluble Pear for pastry-like depth.

  • Salted Caramel Apple: caramel drizzle + a single salt flake.

  • Chai Apple Tea Latte: swap espresso for strong black tea; add cardamom & clove.

  • Iced Apple Latte: cold-foam your milk and build over ice.

Why My Flavours Work Here

  • Orchard Collection: apple, pear, cherry, concord—built for fall menus and barista creativity.

  • Oil-soluble in MCT: seamless in fat-based systems; fuller mouthfeel.

  • Ultra-concentrated: tiny dose, big flavour; consistent from cup to cup.
