Syrup Mixture
- 2 tablespoons 100% pure maple syrup
- 2 tablespoons light brown sugar, packed
- ½ teaspoon vanilla bean paste
- ⅛ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ⅛ teaspoon sea salt
Beverage
- 2 ounces espresso
- Ice, as needed
- 6 – 8 ounces milk (adjust to taste)
- Prepare the syrup base: Add the maple syrup, light brown sugar, vanilla bean paste, ground cinnamon, and sea salt to a heat-safe glass.
- Brew and froth espresso: Brew 2 ounces of espresso directly into the glass containing the syrup mixture. Use a hand frother to whip the mixture until the sugar dissolves completely and it becomes pale and frothy.
- Assemble the drink: Fill a 20 or 24-ounce cup with ice cubes, then pour in 6 to 8 ounces of milk, adjusting the amount based on desired coffee strength.
- Combine and enjoy: Pour the frothy espresso mixture over the ice and milk. Serve with a straw or sip directly to enjoy the creamy, foamy top.
Notes
- Adjust milk quantity depending on how strong you prefer your coffee flavor.
- Vanilla bean paste can be substituted with vanilla extract, but paste provides a richer vanilla flavor and speckled appearance.
- For a dairy-free version, use almond milk or oat milk in place of regular milk.
- This recipe serves one large iced latte.
- Use freshly brewed espresso for best flavor and froth.
