Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup of brewed coffee (cooled)
- 1 cup of coconut milk (canned or carton)
- 1/4 cup of pink syrup (such as raspberry or strawberry syrup)
- 1 tablespoon of vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon of sweetened condensed milk (optional, for extra sweetness)
- Ice cubes
- Shredded coconut (for garnish)
- Fresh raspberries or strawberries (for garnish, optional)
Instructions
- Brew your favorite coffee (about 1 cup) and let it cool to room temperature. For quicker cooling, place it in the fridge. Optionally, add 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract for extra flavor.
- In a bowl or measuring cup, mix 1 cup of coconut milk with 1/4 cup of pink syrup. Adjust the syrup to your taste. For added creaminess, stir in 1 tablespoon of sweetened condensed milk (optional). Add 1 tablespoon of vanilla extract and mix well.
- Fill a tall glass halfway with ice cubes. Pour the cooled coffee over the ice, filling the glass about halfway. Slowly pour the coconut milk mixture over the coffee to create a layered effect. Stir gently to combine slightly, keeping the pink color on top.
- Sprinkle shredded coconut on top for a tropical touch. Optionally, add fresh raspberries or strawberries for color and flavor.
- Serve immediately with a straw or spoon. Enjoy your Pink Coconut Iced Latte on a sunny afternoon or as a refreshing pick-me-up. Store any leftover coconut milk mixture in the fridge for a couple of days, stirring before use.
Notes
- Feel free to experiment with different syrups like mango or passion fruit for a unique twist.
- Toasting the shredded coconut in a dry skillet adds crunch and a nutty flavor.
