Summertime Strawberry Latte

Summertime Strawberry Latte

The perfect summer staple for your at-home coffee dates with the girls.

I’m not a big coffee drinker (unless it’s decaf), so when I do opt for a coffee, I make sure it tastes good. Let me tell you, this tastes like a drink straight from Starbucks – it may convert me to a regular coffee girlie!

What You’ll Need:

Strawberry Syrup:

  • 1 cup strawberries
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup water

Strawberry Latte:

  • 3 tablespoons strawberry syrup
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 2 shots espresso, slightly cooled
  • Ice (optional)

Here’s How To Make It:

Start with the Strawberry Syrup

Toss the strawberries, sugar, and water into a saucepan. Cook it all together for about 10-15 minutes until the strawberries break down and the mixture gets nice and thick. Strain it through a fine mesh sieve and let it cool.

Brew the Espresso

While your syrup is cooling, make 2 shots of espresso. You can use an espresso machine or even a strong coffee concentrate. Let the espresso cool a bit.

 Make the Latte

Grab your favorite mug (I used our Saturday Mug In Strawberry Sweetheart) and pour in 3 tablespoons of your homemade strawberry syrup. Add some ice if you want (it’s optional, but I love it cold!). Then, pour in the milk and slightly cooled espresso.

Stir and Enjoy

Give it a good stir and enjoy! 🍓☕
