Ingredients

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 (enough to fill a 20 or 24-ounce cup)
  • 6 - 8 ounces milk (adjust quantity for desired strength)

Instructions

  1. Combine Syrup Ingredients: Add the maple syrup, light brown sugar, vanilla bean paste, ground cinnamon, and sea salt into a heat-safe glass.
  2. Brew and Froth Espresso: Brew 2 ounces of espresso directly into the glass containing the syrup mixture. Use a hand frother to whisk the mixture until the sugar dissolves completely and the mixture becomes pale and frothy.
  3. Prepare the Glass with Ice and Milk: Fill a 20 or 24-ounce cup with ice and pour in 6 to 8 ounces of milk, adjusting the amount based on how strong you prefer your coffee flavor.
  4. Assemble the Iced Latte: Pour the frothy espresso mixture over the ice and milk. Serve immediately with a straw or by sipping directly to enjoy the foamy top.

Notes

  • Use a hand frother for optimal froth; alternatively, a small whisk can be used but may require more effort.
  • You can substitute milk with any plant-based milk like almond or oat for a dairy-free version.
  • Adjust the amount of milk or espresso according to your preference for a stronger or milder coffee flavor.
  • To enhance the flavor, consider adding a dash of nutmeg or a cinnamon stick as a garnish.
  • This recipe serves one but can be scaled up for more servings.
