Iced Coffee Season

With the weather warming up, we’re coming into iced coffee season!

Are you an iced coffee or cold brew lover?! Or are you like me and iced lattes are more your thing? If I had my choice and an unlimited amount of funds, I’d be rolling through the Starbucks drive-through every morning for an iced vanilla latte.

An iced latte is simply milk mixed into espresso with ice in the glass. Yes! It’s that simple!

WHAT KIND OF MILK SHOULD YOU USE?

You can use any kind of milk you want from whole to skim cow’s milk to almond, soy, or coconut milk. Or any kind of milk in between as long as you love it!

Heavy cream and half-and-half aren’t really recommended for lattes. You’ll be adding 8 ounces of milk to your iced latte and the higher fat content in heavy cream and half-and-half doesn’t make them a great option for this drink. I personally love OAT milk!!!

First step is you need espresso! I make a huge batch of it and let it cool completely off on Sundays along with my meal prep days.

Then I pour the coffee into these amazing ice molds I purchased and I freeze the “ coffee ice” overnight!

The simply pour 2-3 ice cubes in a glass and the pour your milk over the coffee cubes! And add a tiny bit of vanilla! Let it sit for about 30 minutes and gradually the coffee cubes will melt !

Sooooo good!!!!
