A refreshing Vanilla Raspberry Iced Latte combining rich espresso, sweet raspberry and vanilla syrups, creamy milk, and optional luscious vanilla cold foam or whipped cream for a delightful iced coffee experience perfect for any time of day.

Ingredients

Scale

Coffee Base

  • 2 shots freshly brewed espresso (or ~6 oz strong coffee)

Flavored Syrups

  • 2–3 Tbsp raspberry syrup (homemade or store-bought)
  • 1 Tbsp vanilla syrup or pure vanilla extract

Milk and Cream

  • 8–10 oz milk of your choice (dairy or non-dairy)
  • 3 oz heavy cream (for vanilla cold foam)
  • 1 oz milk (for vanilla cold foam)
  • 1 oz vanilla syrup (for vanilla cold foam)

Other

  • Ice
  • (Optional) Vanilla cold foam or whipped cream for topping

Instructions

  1. Brew Coffee: Brew 2 shots of espresso or approximately 6 ounces of strong coffee. Allow it to cool slightly or chill in the refrigerator to avoid melting the ice too quickly and diluting the drink.
  2. Prepare Glass: In a tall glass, add a generous amount of ice, followed by 2 to 3 tablespoons of raspberry syrup and 1 tablespoon of vanilla syrup or pure vanilla extract to create the sweet flavor base.
  3. Combine Coffee and Syrups: Pour the cooled espresso or coffee over the syrups and ice in the glass, ensuring they mix well as the coffee flows through the syrups.
  4. Add Milk: Pour 8 to 10 ounces of your choice of milk into the glass to fill it up, then stir gently to combine all the flavors harmoniously without disrupting the ice.
  5. Make Vanilla Cold Foam (Optional): To prepare the vanilla cold foam, whip together 3 ounces of heavy cream, 1 ounce of milk, and 1 ounce of vanilla syrup until frothy and smooth. Spoon the cold foam generously over the iced latte or alternatively top with whipped cream.
  6. Serve and Enjoy: Serve the vanilla raspberry iced latte immediately while cold and enjoy the perfect balance of sweet raspberry, rich coffee, and creamy vanilla flavors.

Notes

  • For a dairy-free version, use plant-based milks such as almond, oat, or soy milk and opt out of heavy cream or use coconut cream for the cold foam.
  • If you don’t have raspberry syrup, you can substitute with raspberry puree or a few muddled fresh raspberries with a bit of sugar.
  • Adjust the sweetness by varying the amount of raspberry and vanilla syrup to suit your taste.
  • To make cold foam without a mixer, shake the cream, milk, and vanilla syrup vigorously in a sealed jar until frothy.
  • Use freshly brewed espresso for the best flavor, but strong brewed coffee is a fine alternative.
