- Step 2: Grab a small mason jar that fits an electric frother and add:
- 3 tablespoons cold heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons cold almond milk
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar simple syrup
- ½ teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- Step 3: Froth until nice and foamy.
- Step 4: Pour over your favorite coffee drink and enjoy!
How I Make My Famous Iced Brown Sugar Almond Milk Latte
I love starting my morning with a latte. In the winter, I whip up a Hot Peppermint Mocha Latte or a Hot Cinnamon Latte—both are amazing! But in the summer, I switch to an iced latte, and my go-to is the Iced Brown Sugar Almond Milk Latte with Vanilla Brown Sugar Cold Foam. It’s a mouthful, but it’s as good as it sounds. Here’s how I make it:
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons instant espresso (or brew your own)
- 1 cup of cold water (or enough brewed espresso to make one cup)
- 1 cup of cold almond milk
- 1 teaspoon of brown sugar simple syrup (see cold foam recipe step 1 above)
- 1 cup of ice
- ½ cup of brown sugar vanilla cold foam (see above for recipe)
Recipe Substitutions And Notes
These substitutions will allow you to customize your Iced Brown Sugar Almond Milk Latte to fit your flavor preferences and dietary needs, creating a deliciously versatile drink. Experiment with different combinations to find your perfect summer latte!
- Milk Alternatives
- Oat Milk: Creamy and naturally sweet, oat milk is an excellent dairy-free substitute that adds a rich flavor.
- Soy Milk: High in protein, soy milk is another popular dairy alternative that works well in lattes.
- Coconut Milk: For a tropical twist, use coconut milk, which adds a rich and creamy texture with a hint of coconut flavor.
2. Sweeteners
- Maple Syrup: A natural sweetener that adds a distinct flavor, perfect for those who want to avoid refined sugar.
- Honey: A classic choice that adds a unique floral sweetness; just be aware it’s not vegan.
- Agave Nectar: A vegan-friendly sweetener with a mild flavor, agave nectar dissolves easily in cold drinks.
3. Espresso Alternatives
- Cold Brew Coffee: For a smoother flavor, substitute espresso with cold brew coffee; it’s less acidic and offers a refreshing taste.
- Regular Brewed Coffee: If you don’t have espresso on hand, strong brewed coffee can work as a base for your latte.
4. Flavors and Syrups
- Vanilla Syrup: Enhance the sweetness with vanilla syrup for a classic vanilla latte flavor.
- Caramel Sauce: Drizzle caramel on top for a decadent caramel latte experience.
- Pumpkin Spice: For a seasonal twist, add pumpkin spice to the latte during fall.
5. Cold Foam Variations
- Coconut Cream: For a tropical flair, replace heavy cream with coconut cream for your cold foam.
- Almond Whipped Cream: If you want a lighter option, consider using almond whipped cream for a nutty flavor.
6. Toppings
- Chocolate Shavings: Add a touch of decadence with chocolate shavings on top of your cold foam.
- Cinnamon Dust: Sprinkle cinnamon on top for extra warmth and spice.
- Nutmeg: A pinch of nutmeg adds a lovely, aromatic touch to your latte.
