Nutella Iced Latte

8 Replies

When the weather is warm, I particularly enjoy an iced latte.  As much as I love this coffee house treat, I am always a little annoyed with myself when I spend four dollars for what is essentially milk and a little espresso.  So, I have concocted a few at-home versions over the years that I enjoy just as much, sometimes more so.

This Nutella latte ranks high on my list.  I prefer the drink to be not too sweet.  If you like your lattes a bit sweeter, feel free to increase the amount of Nutella to taste or add your preferred sweetener.  And for those times when you aren’t thinking ahead and don’t want to wait for the coffee to chill, have a batch of coffee ice cubes in your freezer.  That way, you can have your drink right away, and it won’t be diluted by the ice!

Nutella Iced Latte
I like to make coffee in advance and store in the fridge so it is cold and ready when I am thirsty. This way, the drink won't be diluted by rapidly melting ice cubes. For easy mixing, make sure to stir the Nutella into the coffee while it is hot. Of course, you may enjoy this as a hot drink, too! If you have an espresso maker, you can make your own version using espresso.

Ingredients
  • 1 cup strong brewed coffee (or try this cold brew option)
  • 1/2 cup milk (non-fat, 2%, or soy according to preference)
  • 1 tablespoon Nutella
  • Ice cubes
  • Whipped cream, optional
Instructions
  1. Add the Nutella to the hot coffee and stir to dissolve. Refrigerate until cold. (As an option, you can make ice cubes out of leftover coffee to chill and serve immediately without diluting the coffee.)
  2. Pour the coffee mixture and the milk into a tall glass of ice and stir. Top with a squirt of whipped cream, if desired.
Notes
  • One tablespoon of Nutella will make a latte that is not overly sweet. If you prefer a sweeter drink, you may add more or sweeten to taste.
