How to Make a Café-Style Iced Latte at Home

A proper iced latte is crisp, smooth, and perfectly balanced. With just a few simple steps, you can enjoy a café-quality version at home.

What You’ll Need:

  • Freshly brewed double espresso shot

  • Ice cubes (lots of them)

  • Milk of choice (full-fat, oat, almond—whatever suits your taste)

  • A tall glass

The Method:

  1. Fill Your Glass with Ice Use plenty of ice to keep your drink cold and refreshing.

  2. Pour in the Milk Add your preferred milk over the ice, leaving space for the espresso. This helps create a smooth blend.

  3. Brew Your Espresso Using freshly ground coffee, pull a double shot of espresso. If you don’t have an espresso machine, a Moka pot or Aeropress will work—just aim for a strong, concentrated coffee base.

  4. Pour the Espresso Over the Milk and Ice The contrast of hot espresso meeting cold milk creates a beautifully layered effect. Stir if you prefer a more integrated flavour.

Tips for the Perfect Iced Latte:

  • Use high-quality coffee beans – A well-balanced espresso makes all the difference.

  • Adjust the milk ratio – Tailor it to your taste for the perfect balance of coffee and creaminess.

Just how an iced latte should be.
