Pro Tips
Use plant-based milks (like oat or almond) to significantly reduce the carbon footprint of your latte.
Switch to a reusable cup to save thousands of disposable cups from landfills over your lifetime.
Only boil the amount of water you actually need; heating water is energy-intensive.
Look for 'Fair Trade' or 'Rainforest Alliance' certifications to support sustainable farming practices.
