Master the Art of Iced Cafe Latte with Instant Coffee Mix: Enjoy Premium Cafe-Style Drinks at Home!
Tired of expensive cafe visits for your favorite cafe latte? With this simple recipe, you can now craft a delicious, cafe-quality iced latte right in your own kitchen! We’ll guide you through making a perfect blend of sweet instant coffee, creamy milk, and refreshing ice for a delightful treat anytime.
Ingredients
- 2 packets of instant coffee mix (approx. 24g)
- 3 tablespoons hot water (approx. 45ml)
- 180ml fresh milk (about 1 standard paper cup)
- 160g ice cubes (enough to fill a 400ml cup)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Begin by carefully opening and pouring 2 packets of instant coffee mix into a clean mug. The sweet aroma of the coffee mix will already start to tantalize your senses.
Step 2
Next, add 3 tablespoons (about 45ml) of hot water to the coffee mix. The hot water helps the instant coffee dissolve smoothly and ensures it blends well with the milk later.
Step 3
Using a small teaspoon or a chopstick, stir the mixture thoroughly until the instant coffee is completely dissolved. Ensuring no clumps remain will result in a cleaner coffee taste.
Step 4
Now, prepare 180ml of cold fresh milk (approximately one standard paper cup). Pour the milk into a container, seal it tightly with a lid or plastic wrap, and shake vigorously to create a frothy layer. Shaking creates a lovely creamy texture, much like you’d find at a cafe.
Step 5
Fill a 400ml glass generously with ice cubes, around 160g. Using a clear glass allows you to admire the beautiful layers of your drink as you assemble it.
Step 6
Gently pour the frothy cold milk over the ice-filled glass. Pour slowly to maintain the beautiful foam layer on top.
Step 7
Finally, slowly drizzle the dissolved sweet coffee mixture down the side of the glass, over the milk foam. Watch as the rich coffee creates a beautiful contrasting layer.
Step 8
Insert a straw and give it a gentle stir, just enough to slightly blend the coffee and milk foam. Avoid over-stirring, as this can deflate the foam and diminish the texture.
Step 9
Voila! Your delicious, refreshing homemade Iced Cafe Latte is ready. Forget expensive cafe trips; embrace the joy of your own personal cafe experience with this simple recipe. It’s the perfect way to add a touch of sweetness and relaxation to your day!
