Key Ingredients

2 tbsp Instant Coffee: Instant coffee gives a bold coffee base to your iced latte drink. Choose a good quality instant coffee for the best flavour.

2 tbsp Hot Water: Hot water helps dissolve the instant coffee quickly and completely. You can also use warm water, but avoid using cold water, as it won’t dissolve the coffee properly and may leave grainy particles in your drink.

2 tbsp Caramel Syrup: Caramel syrup works perfect for sweetness and the classic caramel flavour that makes this drink so popular. You can even use caramel sauce if you don’t have the syrup.

1 cup Cold Milk: Whole milk creates the creamiest latte, but you can also use:

• Oat milk
• Almond milk
• Soy milk
• Coconut milk
• Skim milk

Ice Cubes: Always use plenty of ice to keep your latte chilled and cold.

Whipped Cream (Optional)
