Notes

Top Tips

    • Quality Coffee: Start with the freshest and best quality coffee you can get for the best espresso flavor.
    • Sugar and other sweeteners: Remember the vanilla syrup is very sweet, so try making your iced vanilla latte without adding sweeteners. If you take a sip and it's still not sweet enough for you, you can still stir in some sweetener.
    • Fresh Milk: Use fresh, cold milk for a creamy texture. You can use dairy or non-dairy milk depending on your preference.
    • Personalize: Customize your latte with almond, soy, or oat milk for a dairy-free option.
    • Sweeten to Taste: Adjust the amount of vanilla syrup to suit your sweetness preference.
    • Pour Slowly: Slowly pour the milk over the coffee and ice to create a beautiful layered effect.
    • Add Flavors: Experiment with other flavors like caramel, hazelnut, or mocha for a unique twist.
    • Serve Cold: Ensure your glass and milk are cold before assembling your latte.
    • Finishing touches: Garnish with whipped cream or a sprinkle of chocolate or cinnamon powder for extra flair.
    • Enjoy Immediately: Your chilled vanilla latte is best enjoyed immediately for maximum freshness and flavor.
