Iced Vanilla Latte

Step 1

Make vanilla syrup.Stir together hot water, vanilla extract, and sugar until sugar dissolves. The finer the sugar, the quicker it will dissolve so avoid using raw or turbinado sugar.

Step 2

Make cream topping.Whisk heavy cream and vanilla syrup until it thickens using a handheld milk frother. (This is my secret to making whipped cream for drinks in seconds.)

Step 3

Stir together coffee, vanilla syrup, and milk.
