Cool, creamy, and full of vanilla flavor—this Iced Vanilla Latte is a quick and easy way to enjoy your favorite coffee shop drink at home. Ready in minutes with just a few ingredients!
2 to 4tablespoonsvanilla syrupmore or less to taste
1cupmilk or cream
1/2cupstrong brewed coffeeor two shots of espresso
Instructions
Start by filling two tall cups with ice. This keeps the drink chilled and helps layer the ingredients.
Pour 1 to 2 tablespoons of vanilla syrup into each glass, depending on how sweet you like it.
Divide the milk evenly between the glasses, pouring it directly over the ice and syrup. This helps chill and slightly dilute the syrup for even flavor.
Top each glass with a shot of espresso or about ½ cup of strong brewed coffee.
Give each glass a gentle stir to combine all the layers. Pop in a straw and enjoy immediately!

Notes
Add more or less syrup per your tastes. I like 1-2 tablespoons, but also like a more bold coffee flavor. My sister, on the other hand, likes the full 1/2 a cup. Start with a small amount and add additional as needed.
Want a stronger drink? Use a little less milk and more coffee/two shots of espresso per cup.
