Iced Latte

Let's move on to a simple yet delightful iced latte, perfect for any café or home barista. This recipe has only three main components, making it easy and versatile.

Ingredients:

- 6-7 ice cubes

- 1 double shot of espresso

- 200 ml of milk (or enough to fill your chosen glass)

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Ice: Start by placing 6-7 ice cubes into your glass. These solid ice blocks will keep your drink refreshingly cold.

2. Add the Milk: Pour about 200 ml of milk into the glass, leaving some space at the top for the espresso. The exact amount of milk can vary depending on the size of your glass.

3. Pour the Espresso: Add the double shot of espresso to the milk and ice. This step gives the drink its characteristic coffee flavor and blends smoothly with the milk.

4. Mix Well: Stir the drink well to combine all the ingredients, ensuring the espresso is evenly distributed throughout the milk.

Customization Tips:

- Flavored Syrups: Add a dash of hazelnut syrup for a hazelnut latte, or chocolate sauce or powdered espresso for an iced mocha.

- Sweeteners: You can enhance the sweetness by adding a simple sugar syrup or condensed milk. For a Vietnamese twist, use sweetened condensed milk without blending or altering the ice.
