Print Recipe

A refreshing and creamy iced latte combining coconut milk, floral lavender syrup, and natural honey sweetness, perfect for warm weather and a soothing pick-me-up.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 shots espresso or strong brewed coffee (about 60 ml / 2 fl oz)
  • 1 cup (240 ml) full-fat canned coconut milk or carton coconut milk for lighter version
  • 2 tablespoons (30 ml) lavender syrup (homemade or store-bought) or 1 teaspoon dried culinary lavender steeped and strained
  • 1 to 2 tablespoons (15–30 ml) honey (raw or local)
  • Ice cubes (enough to fill glass halfway)
  • ¼ teaspoon (1 ml) vanilla extract (optional)
  • Pinch of sea salt

Instructions

  1. Brew 2 shots (about 60 ml / 2 fl oz) of espresso or strong coffee using espresso machine, moka pot, Aeropress, or cold brew concentrate. Set aside to cool for 3-5 minutes.
  2. In a small saucepan over low heat, gently warm 1 cup (240 ml) coconut milk without boiling.
  3. Stir in 2 tablespoons (30 ml) lavender syrup, 1 to 2 tablespoons (15-30 ml) honey, ¼ teaspoon (1 ml) vanilla extract, and a pinch of sea salt. Whisk gently until smooth, about 2-3 minutes.
  4. Fill a tall glass halfway with ice cubes.
  5. Pour the cooled espresso over the ice to create layering.
  6. Slowly pour the lavender coconut milk mixture over the coffee and ice.
  7. Stir gently before drinking to combine flavors.
  8. Optional: Garnish with a pinch of dried lavender buds or a drizzle of honey.
  9. Optional: Use a handheld frother on the warm coconut milk mixture before pouring for a foamy texture.

Notes

Use full-fat canned coconut milk for best creaminess. Warm coconut milk gently to avoid curdling. Let espresso cool before pouring over ice to prevent dilution. Adjust honey and lavender syrup to taste. For vegan version, substitute honey with maple syrup or agave nectar.
