How to choose good beetroot
- The beetroot leaves must be dark green, with thin veins, and without brown or red edges (beetroot leaves are edible).
- The bulb should have a firm, smooth skin, dark red color, and no cracks or soft spots. Additionally, the bulb should not have scales or circles on the top; they must be uniformly spherical (round) and not elongated.
- You should buy small to medium-sized beetroots because large ones are usually hard, and the inside will be woody, making them not tasty.

Tip: If you do not use almond milk, you can substitute it with other types of nut milk! However, the flavor of the latte will be slightly different, so it is still recommended to use the correct type of milk to ensure better flavor.
