Homemade Hazelnut Syrup for Coffee
If you enjoy making your own coffee syrups, you can also prepare homemade hazelnut syrup in just a few minutes.
A basic homemade hazelnut syrup can be made with sugar, water, and roasted hazelnuts. You can also add maple syrup for extra flavor.
Simply chop 1 cup of roasted hazelnuts and add them to a saucepan along with 1 cup of sugar and 1 cup of water. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat and let it simmer for about 10 minutes. Wait until the mixture becomes slightly thick, then remove it from the heat and let it rest for about 30 minutes.
Next, strain the mixture and pour the syrup into a clean glass bottle. Your homemade hazelnut syrup is now ready to use in your iced coffee, lattes, and other favorite coffee drinks.
Homemade syrup gives you more control over the sweetness and flavor. It can be used in iced lattes, hot lattes, cold brew, iced coffee, and other drink syrups.

How Many Calories Are in a Hazelnut Honey Iced Latte?
The amount of calories depends on the type and amount of milk, honey, and hazelnut syrup you use.
For example, a homemade version made with whole milk, two espresso shots, one tablespoon of honey syrup, and one tablespoon of hazelnut syrup may contain roughly 180–250 calories, depending on the exact brands and quantities.
Using low-fat milk or an unsweetened plant-based milk can reduce the calorie count. Using less honey or hazelnut syrup will also lower the calories.
