    This easy Caramel Latte Iced Coffee Recipe is Starbucks inspired. A quick and easy homemade drink to make at home with instant coffee or espresso, it is delicious warm in fall and winter or iced in summer.

    🥘 Ingredients

    You wil only need a few simple ingredients for this Starbucks copycat latte:

    • 2-3 T caramel syrup: the recipe only needs 2 Tablespoons but if you want a pretty drink, you'll need an extra tablespoon to coat the sides of the cup. (The drink will be a tad sweeter in this case, so I recommend making the coffee slightly stronger to balance the taste.)
    • ½ Cup strong coffee (you can use instant coffee) or 2 shots of espresso
    • ½ C whole milk: you can use a different milk if you like but I prefer the creaminess of whole milk
    • 1 C ice cubes
    • Whipped cream, optional

    📖 Variations & Substitutes

    • Vegan Caramel Latte: Use a dairy-milk alternative such as oat milk or almond milk paired with this vegan coconut caramel

    🔪 Step-by-Step Instructions

    Dripping syrup into a mug of iced latte.
    1. If you want a pretty latte, make sure you use a clear glass mug. Smear 1.5 Tablespoons of the caramel syrup around the edges of the cup. (If not skip this step.)
    2. In a different cup, mix the milk and remaining 1.5 Tablespoons of caramel syrup. (If not making a pretty latte, you'll be mixing the milk with 2 Tablespoons of syrup here.)
    3. Fill the cup with ice cubes and pour the milk mixture into it, followed by the coffee.
    4. Optional: top with whipped cream, followed by another drizzle of caramel syrup.

    Hi I'm Zhen also known as GGG! I couldn't boil water till I was 18! However, I love creating community and nurturing people, so when I lived abroad (in St. Andrews then London) for 11 years, I started hosting regular parties for friends, and that's how I started cooking and helping out in professional kitchens. (Couldn't cook before that!) I even organised a supper club for charity (which strangers came to!) Learning to cook late, I make sure my recipes go into enough detail for those new to Asian cuisine or who love a test kitchen approach to cooking!
