description Iced Spanish Latte Overview

An iced Spanish latte is a coffee beverage that combines espresso, regular milk, ice, and sweetened condensed milk. The use of condensed milk is the defining characteristic of the drink, distinguishing it from standard iced lattes that use liquid sweeteners or sugar. This ingredient provides a thick texture and a distinctly rich, sweet flavor profile to the beverage. It is widely served in specialty coffee shops and is popular among consumers who prefer sweet, creamy coffee drinks.

help Iced Spanish Latte FAQ

What ingredients are in an iced Spanish latte?

An iced Spanish latte combines espresso, milk, ice, and sweetened condensed milk. The condensed milk is the defining ingredient that distinguishes it from a standard iced latte.

Why is an iced Spanish latte so sweet?

The signature sweetness and richness come from the use of sweetened condensed milk rather than liquid sugar or regular milk. This gives the beverage a thick, creamy texture that perfectly balances the bitterness of the espresso.

How do you make an iced Spanish latte at home?

To make it at home, you simply pull a double shot of espresso, mix in sweetened condensed milk until dissolved, and pour it over a glass filled with ice and regular milk. Many people use equal parts condensed milk and heavy cream or milk to create the base.

Does an iced Spanish latte contain caffeine?

Yes, an iced Spanish latte contains caffeine because it is traditionally made with standard espresso shots. If you are sensitive to caffeine, you can substitute the espresso with decaf coffee without altering the drink's signature sweet flavor.
