Step-by-Step Instructions for Sakura Latte
  1. Warm the Milk: In a medium saucepan, pour in your chosen milk and sprinkle the Sakura powder over it. Heat over medium-high heat, whisking constantly for about 5–7 minutes until steaming. Small bubbles should form around the edges.
  2. Sweeten the Mixture: Remove from heat and stir in honey until fully incorporated. Taste and adjust sweetness as desired.
  3. Whip the Cream: In a cold mixing bowl, pour in the heavy cream and whip until foamy but not stiff. Set aside.
