When the suns out we all naturally want something cold and crisp to drink. Something that’s a little bit sweet as well as refreshing. This iced blueberry latte is the perfect drink to do just that. It’s summer in a glass. It’s the type of drink that feels like the perfect treat but also gives you that little afternoon kick with the added caffeine.

Why It Works Cold

While a blueberry latte is perfect for a cozy morning or rainy afternoons, this iced blueberry latte is a whole different experience. When served over ice the flavors become bolder and stronger. The cold allows for a fruitier flavor making it blend perfectly with the milk and espresso.

Craving one right now and you don’t want to spend 8 dollars at a coffee shop? I’ve got you! Here is step by step instructions on how to make this iced blueberry latte with blueberry cold foam. It’s a lot easier than you might think!

Homemade Blueberry Syrup:

1. In a medium saucepan bring 1 cup of fresh or frozen blueberries, 1/2 cup of water, and 1/4 cup of granulated sugar to a boil. Reduce heat and stir in 1 tablespoon of blueberry emulsion. (You can find the blueberry emulsion on my amazon storefront) Simmer for 10 minutes. Stirring occasionally.
2. Strain the blueberries and set the blueberry syrup aside in an airtight container.

Blueberry Latte:

1. Pul 1-2 shots of espresso depending on how strong you want the latte. Set aside to cool.
2. Fill a glass with one cup of ice. (The bigger the ice cubes you have the longer it will take the ice to melt. Leaving your latte less diluted and watered down) Add 2 tablespoons of the homemade blueberry syrup to the glass with ice.
3. Pour 6 ounces of milk into the glass next following the cooled espresso.

Blueberry COld Foam:

1. In a small glass add in 1 tablespoon heavy cream, 1 tablespoon half and half, and 1 tablespoon of your homemade blueberry syrup. Froth the mixture until thick and fluffy.
2. Pour the cold foam over the latte and enjoy!

A Fancy Drink That Doesn’t Cost a Fortune

If I’m being honest with you guys, I can’t always go out and buy a fancy iced latte with fruity syrups and cold foams all the time. We’re on a tighter budget right now and spending 6-8 dollars every day on one coffee just isn’t something we can always do. It’s a nice treat once in a while but it’s definitely not very budget friendly.

This homemade version is great if you’re wanting a fancy coffee but not wanting to spend a fortune on it. It’s made with simple ingredients that allow you to recreate that fancy coffee shop latte for just a fraction of the cost. A homemade latte costs under 2 dollars while a coffee shop latte could cost an upwards of 8-10 dollars for one drink. Definitely worth it to try making lattes from now on if you’re trying to stick with a budget!
