Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup (240 ml) coarsely ground coffee
  • 4 cups (960 ml) cold water
  • 1 cup (200 g) sugar
  • 1 cup (240 ml) water
  • 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
  • 3 cups (720 ml) cold brew coffee
  • 2 cups (480 ml) milk (whole milk or dairy-free alternative)
  • 1/2 cup (120 ml) vanilla syrup
  • Ice (crushed or regular)
  • Optional whipped cream

Instructions

  1. Brew the Coffee: Combine 1 cup (240 ml) of coarsely ground coffee with 4 cups (960 ml) of cold water in a large jar or pitcher. Let it steep in the refrigerator for 12-24 hours, then strain using a fine mesh sieve or coffee filter.
  2. Prepare the Vanilla Syrup: In a small saucepan, combine 1 cup (200 g) of sugar with 1 cup (240 ml) of water. Heat over medium until the sugar dissolves. Remove from heat and stir in 2 teaspoons of pure vanilla extract. Let it cool completely.
  3. Mix the Latte Base: In a large pitcher, combine 3 cups (720 ml) of cold brew coffee, 2 cups (480 ml) of milk, and 1/2 cup (120 ml) of vanilla syrup. Stir well until all the ingredients are fully incorporated.
  4. Prepare to Serve: Fill glasses with ice, leaving some room for the latte. Pour the prepared latte over the ice, making sure to fill the glasses evenly.
  5. Optional Garnish: Top each glass with a generous dollop of whipped cream and a drizzle of vanilla syrup or caramel sauce, if desired.

Notes

[‘Use high-quality coffee and vanilla syrup for the best flavor.’, ‘Don’t skimp on ice to keep the drink refreshingly cold and maintain the right dilution.’, ‘Adjust sweetness by starting with 1/4 cup (60 ml) of vanilla syrup and adding more to taste.’, ‘Prepare the latte base a day in advance and refrigerate for convenience.’, ‘Serve in mason jars or clear glasses to showcase the layers of coffee, milk, and ice.’]
