Starbucks Iced Vanilla Latte

Starbucks coffee is a familiar site in most corners of the United States and many locations around the world. The coffee house restaurant has been roasting, grinding and selling coffee since 1971. The Starbucks iced vanilla latte recipe combines flavorful coffee blends with milk for a creamy and smooth treat. With over 17,000 stores in over 50 countries, it's always hot enough for an iced coffee somewhere, but the cost of the cup of coffee may dig into a tight budget, especially since Starbucks coupons are hard to find.^[1]

Starbucks Iced Vanilla Lattes are even easier to make than a regular Starbucks Vanilla Latte. A latte is simply espresso with steamed milk. With an iced latte, steaming the milk is skipped as it would heat up the mixture too much.^[2] Crafting a Starbucks quality iced vanilla latte at home requires a quality espresso, milk, some Starbucks Vanilla Syrup and your choice of milk. If you like, you can make your own vanilla syrup at home, or you can purchase the syrup at any Starbucks location.

Comments

There are only three ingredients (plus the ice, of course,) yet there are so many different ways to create an iced latte. Experiment to find the way that works best. One option is to follow Starbucks' instructions as outlined above. Another way would be to add the syrup to the espresso while it is hot, making the syrup dissolve quickly. Adding the espresso to the milk before pouring the mixture over the ice will cool the espresso and help keep the ice from melting too quickly.

If you can't bear to dilute your coffee with ice, freeze some espresso into ice cubes and replace some of the ice cubes with espresso cubes.^[6] It's a great use for leftover coffee and it will keep the flavor of your iced vanilla latte strong from start to finish.

For variety, try different syrup flavors. Starbucks offers several, or you can make your own syrup at home.^[7] Mocha, almond, hazelnut, mint, orange, and [[caramel are just some of the flavors you might try.^{[8] [9] [10] [11]}
