When the temperature rises but you still crave a bold, espresso-like coffee, this Brown Sugar Vanilla Iced Latte has you covered. Brewed directly over brown sugar and vanilla with your AeroPress, it’s full of rich, caramel flavor—no syrup prep or stovetop required.
This iced latte comes together in minutes and delivers café-quality results from the comfort of your kitchen (or wherever you take your AeroPress). A good shake over ice, a swirl of oat milk, and you’ve got your new summer go-to.
Why You'll Love It
There’s something incredibly satisfying about recreating your favorite iced latte at home—and this recipe proves how easy it can be. By brewing directly over brown sugar and vanilla extract, the flavors melt together without needing to make syrup separately.
Using the AeroPress with finely ground coffee and a small amount of water creates a rich, espresso-style base. When shaken with ice, the drink gets chilled and slightly frothy—adding texture and balance before oat milk is layered on top.
Prefer a shortcut? You can batch a homemade brown sugar vanilla syrup to use all week long. Customize the sweetness or switch up the milk, but we find oat milk pairs especially well with the caramel-like flavor of the brown sugar.
Shake, Sip, Repeat
Few drinks hit the sweet spot of quick, refreshing, and indulgent like this iced latte. With just a handful of ingredients and your AeroPress, you’ll be shaking up cold coffee perfection all summer long.
