Macadamia Free Iced Latte
Coffee shop drinks can be a minefield when you're avoiding certain tree nuts, since flavored syrups, specialty milks, and barista blends sometimes sneak in unexpected ingredients. This version keeps things beautifully simple — just espresso, whole milk, ice, and an optional touch of simple syrup, so you know exactly what's in your glass. The technique of pouring the espresso slowly over the milk creates that gorgeous layered effect before you stir it all together, making it feel far more special than the effort involved. Whole milk gives the drink a creamy, lush body that holds up perfectly against the bold espresso shots. Whether you pull it together on a slow weekend morning or need a quick afternoon pick-me-up, this is the kind of café-quality drink that's genuinely satisfying to make at home.
