Can I use instant coffee instead of espresso for this recipe?

Yes, you can use instant coffee instead of freshly brewed espresso to make your Iced French Toast Latte. Just ensure to allow the instant coffee to cool before adding it to your glass. While the flavor might be slightly different, it can still provide a lovely caffeine kick and make your latte deliciously enjoyable.

How long can I store the Iced French Toast Latte?

For optimal taste, I recommend enjoying your Iced French Toast Latte fresh. However, if you have leftovers, they will stay good in the refrigerator for about 1 to 2 days. Make sure to store it in a sealed container to maintain its flavor and texture.

Can I make a non-dairy version of the Iced French Toast Latte?

Absolutely! To create a non-dairy version, simply swap out the heavy cream and milk with your favorite plant-based alternatives such as almond milk, oat milk, or coconut cream. You will still get all the delightful flavors of the Iced French Toast Latte without the dairy.

Can I make this latte hot instead of iced?

Certainly! If you prefer a more traditional hot version, omit the ice and heat the milk and espresso mixture before topping it with the cold foam. Simply follow the same steps and enjoy it warmed for a comforting morning drink.

What can I use instead of brown sugar?

If you don’t have brown sugar on hand, you can substitute it with white sugar. To mimic the flavor of brown sugar, consider adding a little bit of molasses to your white sugar to achieve a similar richness and depth of flavor.

Instructions

In a small saucepan, combine the water, brown sugar, and maple syrup. Bring to a low boil, stirring occasionally for 5-6 minutes until it thickens. Remove from heat, whisk in butter, cinnamon, and vanilla, then let cool.
For the cold foam, in a small jar, combine cream, milk, and syrup. Seal and shake vigorously for 1-2 minutes until thick and creamy. Keep cold.
Fill a 12-ounce glass halfway with ice. Add 2 tablespoons of French toast syrup, then pour in the milk, followed by the cooled espresso. Top with prepared cold foam and garnish with extra cinnamon if desired.

Notes

You can use plant-based milks and creams for a dairy-free option. Try adding hazelnut or caramel syrup for variations.
