If you love a sweet, creamy iced coffee but don’t want to make a coffee shop run, this Brown Sugar Cinnamon Iced Latte is so easy to make at home. It has that perfect combination of bold espresso, warm cinnamon, brown sugar and vanilla, all poured over cold milk and plenty of ice.

I use NESCAFÉ Gold Espresso Intense Instant Coffee for this recipe because its stronger espresso flavor holds up really well to the milk and brown sugar. There’s no espresso machine needed—just dissolve it in a little hot water and you’re ready to go!

Add the optional brown sugar cinnamon cold foam when you want to make it a little extra special. It’s creamy, lightly sweet and makes this simple iced latte taste like something you’d order at your favorite coffee shop.
