Ingredients
Ingredients
- Ice, as needed to fill two tall glasses
- 2 to 4 tablespoons vanilla syrup (adjust to taste)
- 1 cup milk or cream (your choice of dairy or non-dairy milk)
- 1/2 cup strong brewed coffee or two shots of espresso
Instructions
- Prepare the ice and glasses: Fill two tall glasses with ice to keep the drink properly chilled and to help layer the ingredients effectively.
- Add vanilla syrup: Pour 1 to 2 tablespoons of vanilla syrup into each glass, adjusting the amount to your preferred sweetness level.
- Pour the milk: Evenly divide 1 cup of milk or cream between the two glasses, pouring it over the ice and syrup to chill and dilute the syrup slightly for balanced flavor.
- Top with coffee: Carefully pour a shot of espresso or ½ cup of strong brewed coffee into each glass, adding warmth and rich coffee flavor.
- Mix and serve: Gently stir each glass to combine all the layers, then insert a straw and enjoy immediately for the best taste and refreshing experience.
Notes
- Use any milk variety – whole, skim, almond, soy, oat, or cream – depending on your preference.
- Adjust vanilla syrup according to your desired level of sweetness.
- For a stronger coffee flavor, use espresso shots instead of brewed coffee.
- This drink is best served immediately to enjoy the contrasting layers of flavor and temperature.
- For a dairy-free version, opt for plant-based milk and ensure the vanilla syrup is vegan-friendly.
