Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients

1 shot strong brewed espresso or strongly brewed coffee, chilled 1 ounce
1 cup milk dairy or non-dairy like almond, oat, or soy
2 tablespoons vanilla syrup store-bought or homemade
1 cup ice cubes
Whipped cream for topping Optional
A drizzle of extra vanilla syrup for topping Optional

Equipment

Tall glass
Espresso machine (optional)

Method

Brew one shot (approximately 1 ounce) of strong espresso. If you don't have an espresso machine, you can use very strongly brewed coffee or a concentrated cold brew. Ensure it's cooled down completely so it doesn't melt your ice too quickly.
1 shot strong brewed espresso or strongly brewed coffee, chilled
In a tall glass, pour in your chosen milk (we recommend whole milk or oat milk for a rich texture, but any kind works!). Add 2 tablespoons of vanilla syrup.
1 cup milk, 2 tablespoons vanilla syrup
Fill your glass generously with ice cubes. The more ice, the colder and more refreshing your latte will be.
1 cup ice cubes
Pour the chilled espresso or coffee over the milk and vanilla syrup mixture.

Gently stir the ingredients together until the syrup is fully incorporated into the milk and coffee. Taste and adjust sweetness if needed by adding a little more vanilla syrup.
