​What is the Oatmilk Honey Latte from Starbucks?

The iced honey oat milk latte is a popular drink that is similar to a traditional latte in that it's made with espresso and milk. However, the milk is oat milk instead of dairy. And the latte is flavored and sweetened with honey instead of a coffee syrup or simple syrup. You can have it hot or iced.
