Learn how to turn Onyx Delight Powder into a hot or iced latte, flavored steamer, or coffee enhancer at home. Step-by-step instructions with common mistakes to avoid.
Quick answer
Use Onyx Delight Powder to make a hot or iced latte, a flavored steamer, or to enhance your regular coffee. Just mix 2-3 tablespoons with hot milk or water, then add espresso or serve as is.
What is Onyx Delight Powder?
Onyx Delight Powder is a pre-mixed flavored coffee base from Onyx Coffee Lab. It combines their Monarch blend coffee with Organic Saigon Cinnamon and Organic Madagascar Vanilla Bean. You'll see tiny spice and vanilla specks in the powder — that's intentional and adds to the flavor.
Hot vs. iced: which to choose?
The powder dissolves best in hot liquid. For iced drinks, mix it with a small amount of hot milk or water first to avoid clumps. Hot drinks give a more pronounced cinnamon and vanilla aroma, while iced versions taste smoother and slightly less sweet.
How to make drinks with Onyx Delight Powder
- Step 1: Heat your milk or water: Heat 6-8 oz of milk (dairy or plant-based) or water until steaming but not boiling. For iced drinks, use 2 oz hot liquid and add ice later. Boiling liquid can scorch the powder and create a burnt taste.
- Step 2: Mix the powder: Add 2-3 tablespoons of Onyx Delight Powder to your cup. Pour the hot liquid over it and stir vigorously until fully dissolved. You'll see tiny spice specks — that's normal. If clumps remain, use a small whisk or frother to break them apart.
- Step 3: Add espresso (optional): For a latte, pull a double shot of espresso and pour it into the milk-powder mixture. Stir gently. For a steamer, skip the espresso and enjoy the flavored milk as is. Adding espresso changes the sweetness balance — you may want to increase the powder by half a tablespoon.
- Step 4: Serve hot or pour over ice: For hot drinks, serve immediately. For iced, fill a glass with ice and pour the mixture over it. The powder's vanilla and cinnamon flavors remain bright even when cold. Don't let the hot mixture sit on ice too long — it will dilute the flavor. Drink within 5 minutes.
