Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 shots Espresso
- 1 cup Milk
- 2 tablespoons Chocolate syrup
- 0.25 teaspoons Cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 1.5 cups Ice cubes
- 2 tablespoons Whipped cream
- 0.25 teaspoons Cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoons Sugar (optional)
Instructions
Brew 2 shots of espresso using your espresso machine or preferred method, and set aside to cool slightly.
In a mixing bowl or large glass, combine the chocolate syrup, cinnamon, and vanilla extract with the cooled espresso. Stir well until fully dissolved.
Fill a tall glass with 1.5 cups of ice cubes.
Pour the espresso mixture over the ice cubes.
In a separate container, froth the milk (cold milk works best for an iced latte). If you don’t have a frother, you can shake the milk in a jar with a lid until it becomes frothy.
Slowly pour the frothed milk over the espresso mixture in the glass. Stir gently to combine.
Taste the latte and add sugar if desired, stirring to dissolve.
Top with whipped cream and dust lightly with cocoa powder for garnish.
Serve immediately with a straw or spoon and enjoy!
