šŸ›’ Ingredients

Iced Latte Base:

  • ā˜• 2 shots espresso (or ~60g strong brewed coffee)

  • šŸ„› 180g unsweetened almond milk

  • šŸ« 30g Torani sugar-free chocolate syrup

  • 🧊 Ice

Maple Cold Foam & Topping:

  • šŸ„› 30g half & half

  • šŸ 10g sugar-free maple syrup

  • šŸ¬ 1 packet sweetener (Stevia or Sweet'N Low)

  • šŸ§‚ Pinch of sea salt (divided)

  • šŸ‚ Sprinkle of ground cinnamon

🄣 Step-by-Step Instructions

  1. Brew & Sweeten the Espresso: Pull 2 shots of fresh espresso directly into a small cup or glass. Stir in 1 packet of sweetener while the coffee is hot so it dissolves completely.

  2. Whip the Maple Cold Foam: In a separate small cup or frothing pitcher, combine 30g half & half and 10g sugar-free maple syrup with a small pinch of sea salt. Use a handheld milk frother for 15–20 seconds until thick, velvety, and doubled in volume.

  3. Build the Base: In your main serving glass, pour in 30g Torani sugar-free chocolate syrup and 180g unsweetened almond milk. Fill the glass to the top with ice.

  4. Layer the Coffee: Slowly pour your hot, sweetened espresso over the iced milk.

  5. Top & Garnish: Spoon or pour the salted cold foam over the top. Finish with a light dusting of ground cinnamon and a tiny pinch of flaky sea salt.

šŸ’” Macro Tweaks & Barista Tips

  • Lower the Fat: Swap the half & half for non-fat Fairlife milk or extra almond milk to drop the total fat and bring the entire drink down to ~35 calories.

  • Boost the Protein: Whisk 15g–20g of chocolate, vanilla, or unflavored whey/casein protein powder directly into the almond milk before pouring it over ice to easily add 15g+ of protein to your morning routine.

  • No Espresso Machine?: Use 60g–80g of concentrated cold brew or dissolve 1–2 tsp of instant espresso powder in 2 oz of warm water.
