Your Homemade Iced Latte
Fill a glass with ice, add espresso or strong coffee, then pour in cold milk. Stir and adjust the coffee-to-milk balance or sweetness to taste.
An iced latte is one of the simplest café-style drinks to make at home. You need coffee with enough flavour to stand up to milk, cold milk of your choice, and ice. Espresso is traditional in many cafés, but strong moka-pot or concentrated filter coffee can work for a home version.
Add ice to a glass, pour in the coffee, then top with milk. Stir before drinking so the flavours combine. If you like a sweeter drink, dissolve sugar or syrup into the coffee before adding ice. Adjust the proportions until the coffee still comes through without overpowering the milk.
