Vanilla Latte
For all of my beginner homebody baristas out there, this is an easy beginners drink! I love a good vanilla latte. I’ll be sharing how to make the simple syrup and latte!
Let’s get started!
Prep Time
5 minutes
Cook Time
5 minutes
Total Time
10 minutes
Ingredients
- 1/4 C strong coffee
- 1 C milk
- 1 T vanilla syrup (or more) (see below for recipe)
- whipped cream (optional)
Instructions
- First make your vanilla simple syrup. You can always just buy the pre-made syrup in the coffee section at the grocery store, but what’s the fun in that?! Combine 1 cup of water and 1 cup of sugar and heat, let the sugar melt then add in 3 T vanilla extract (I used Trader Joe’s vanilla bean paste!) mix well, remove from heat and let cool. Store in a jar.
- In a pot combine milk and 1 T vanilla syrup. You can always add more syrup if you want it sweeter! Let it heat up but not boil! Once the milk is hot, froth it real good!
- Pour your coffee into your favorite mug and pour the milk mixture on top.
- Enjoy!
Notes
Place the syrup in an air tight container and it will last for 3 weeks in the fridge.
Decaf is also an option if you can’t have regular coffee!
