I generally love a latte from a coffee shop but they can be so expensive. Enter this homemade salted honey latte (iced) that’s easy to make using pantry staples. A double shot of espresso mixed with honey and sea salt flakes, then poured over ice and topped with your favorite milk and a honey sweetened cold foam. This salted honey latte screams coffee shop vibes but at a fraction of the cost. You can control how sweet it is and use your preferred milk. Want to switch up your latte flavor, then give this Iced French Toast Latte a try. Or if you are feeling you want something warm then this Snickerdoodle Latte or this Maple Sea Salt Latte may be more your speed.
Ingredients
Espresso- You will need a double shot of espresso
Honey – Use a light colored honey. You will need it for both the espresso and the honey cold foam
Sea Salt Flakes – Enhances the coffee flavor, I use Maldon Sea Salt Flakes
Milk – Use your favorite milk or creamer, just make sure it froths well
Ice
Instructions
Add 1 tbsp of honey to the bottom of a glass or mug then add 1 pinch of sea salt flakes.
Brew a double shot of espresso and pour it into the glass with the honey and sea salt. (or you can brew the espresso directly into the glass with the honey/sea salt)
Combine the espresso with the honey sea salt with a spoon or milk frother.
Fill a large glass with ice then pour the coffee honey mixture over the ice.
Add the desired amount of milk leaving room for the cold foam
Make the Cold Foam
Add 1 tsp of honey to a small pitcher or jar.
Pour 1/4 cup of milk into the pitcher
Froth the milk until doubled in volume and thick, then pour over the iced coffee.
Stir to combine.
Recipe Tips
- Use a creamer, whole milk or 1/2 and 1/2, some milks froth better than others. I used Nutpods, but whole milk, oat milk, 1/2 and 1/2 or any creamer should work well
- Adjust sweetness to your preference
- Keep in mind when adding the milk that the cold foam will add more milk to the drink so don’t overdo it when adding the first splash of milk.
