Chef's Tips
Adjust the amount of hojicha tea leaves to your desired strength.
For a richer latte, use full-fat milk or add a splash of cream.
Experiment with different sweeteners like brown sugar or coconut sugar.
Garnish with a sprinkle of cinnamon or a dusting of hojicha powder for extra flavor and visual appeal.
Store any leftover hojicha concentrate in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
