Homemade Vanilla Latte: Sweetness at Your Fingertips
Easy Recipe for a Smooth Vanilla Latte at Home
Today, I’m excited to share a super simple Vanilla Latte recipe you can make right at home! Perfect for those moments when you crave a cafe-quality drink without leaving your kitchen. Let’s get started!
Ingredients- Ice: Enough to fill about 2/3 of your glass
- Milk: 150ml of fresh, cold milk (adjust to your preference)
- Vanilla Syrup: The key to sweetness! 15g (approx. 1-2 Tbsp, adjust for desired sweetness)
- Espresso: 2 shots (approx. 60ml) for a rich coffee flavor
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, grab your favorite latte glass or a tumbler. Fill it generously with ice, about two-thirds of the way full. Using plenty of ice ensures your latte stays refreshingly cold for longer.
Step 2
Next, gently pour 150ml of fresh, cold milk over the ice. Feel free to adjust the amount of milk based on your personal preference. More milk will make it creamier, while less will give you a stronger coffee taste.
Step 3
Now, let’s add the star of the show: vanilla syrup! Pour 15g of sweet vanilla syrup over the milk. If you have a sweet tooth, you can add a little extra, or reduce it if you prefer a less sweet beverage.
Step 4
Time for the essential espresso! Prepare 2 shots of hot espresso (approximately 60ml). Slowly pour the freshly brewed espresso over the ice and milk mixture. This layering technique creates a beautiful visual and allows the rich coffee aroma to blend with the vanilla and milk.
Step 5
Voila! Your delicious homemade Vanilla Latte is ready! For an even smoother experience, give it a gentle stir with a straw before sipping. Enjoy your aromatic and sweet vanilla latte and savor a moment of pure bliss!
