I’m always looking for new coffee recipes to try so I asked on my Facebook page for suggestions. I had a lot of people tell me that they love the Cinnamon Dolce Latte! I had never tried it before so I promptly drove to Starbucks and bought a latte. Ya know, to test out. I am SO glad I did! I loved it. And of course, I had to come home and recreate in. In my pajamas. (Or maybe I was wearing yoga pants that day.)
What is an iced cinnamon dolce latte?
The iced cinnamon dolce latte is the cold version of the hot cinnamon dolce latte. That totally answers your question, right? (Insert winky face here.)
An iced cinnamon dolce latte is a yummy espresso based coffee drink with a sweet cinnamon flavor. It combines espresso (or strong coffee) with cinnamon dolce syrup, milk or cream and ice. You can buy this drink at Starbucks or you can make it at home.
What’s in an iced cinnamon dolce latte?
The ingredients needed to make a cinnamon dolce latte are pretty common and once you start making this copycat coffee drink at home, you may never buy one at the coffee shop again. To make this Starbucks copycat iced cinnamon dolce latte you will need:
- espresso, strong coffee, leftover coffee or cold brew coffee
- cinnamon dolce syrup
- milk of choice or cream
- ice
- whipped cream
- ground cinnamon
You can use cold brew coffee for the latte or leftover coffee. I used leftover coffee from earlier in the day but cold brew coffee or espresso work just as well. I prefer to use an instant espresso for iced drinks and enjoy the Medaglia brand.
Tips on making a Starbucks copycat cinnamon dolce latte at home:
- Use good coffee or espresso. Day old coffee does work as long as it’s good quality. Instant espresso even works well with this recipe.
- Use a quality syrup. You can make your own using my favorite cinnamon dolce syrup recipe or you can use store bought syrup.
- Make sure your coffee or espresso is room temperature or colder before making your drink.
