Almond Free Iced Latte
Coffee shop drinks can be a minefield when you're avoiding tree nuts — flavored syrups, nut milks, and cross-contact from shared equipment all add up to a stressful order. This version keeps things beautifully simple: espresso, whole milk, ice, and an optional touch of simple syrup. That's it. No hidden ingredients, no guesswork, just a genuinely satisfying iced latte you can make at home in minutes. The technique of pouring the espresso over the milk creates that gorgeous layered look before you stir it all together, which honestly makes it feel a little fancy even on a Tuesday morning. Whole milk gives it that creamy, café-style richness that lighter alternatives just can't match. Whether you pull the shots on an espresso machine or use a stovetop moka pot, the result is bold, cold, and completely refreshing.
