Print Recipe

A refreshing and creamy iced pistachio latte topped with a light, velvety vanilla foam. This easy-to-make drink balances nutty pistachio syrup with smooth espresso and milk, perfect for warm weather or a special coffee treat.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 shots (60 ml) espresso or 1/2 cup (120 ml) strong brewed coffee, cooled
  • 1 cup (240 ml) whole milk or milk of choice (almond or oat milk for dairy-free)
  • 2 tbsp (30 ml) pistachio syrup, homemade or store-bought
  • 1 tsp (5 ml) vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup (120 ml) heavy cream or half-and-half for vanilla foam
  • 1 tsp (5 g) sugar or sweetener (optional)
  • Ice cubes, enough to fill the glass

Instructions

  1. Brew 2 shots (60 ml) of espresso or 1/2 cup (120 ml) of strong coffee and let it cool to room temperature or chill for 5–10 minutes.
  2. Prepare the vanilla foam by pouring 1/2 cup (120 ml) heavy cream or half-and-half into a frother or mixing bowl. Add 1 tsp (5 ml) vanilla extract and 1 tsp (5 g) sugar if using. Froth until soft peaks form and the texture is silky, about 1–2 minutes.
  3. In a tall glass, combine the cooled espresso with 2 tbsp (30 ml) pistachio syrup and stir gently.
  4. Pour in 1 cup (240 ml) milk of choice over the coffee mixture. Add enough ice cubes to fill the glass, leaving room for the foam.
  5. Spoon or pour the vanilla foam gently over the iced latte, allowing it to sit on top like a cloud.
  6. Serve immediately with a straw or stir stick and enjoy.

Notes

Use cold cream and chill tools before frothing for better foam. Adjust pistachio syrup sweetness to taste. If no frother, shake cream and vanilla in a sealed jar to create foam. Chill the glass before serving to keep the latte cool longer. Make your own pistachio syrup by blending pistachio paste with simple syrup for a richer flavor.
