Step-By-Step Instructions
  1. Start by brewing a cup of strong espresso or coffee using a medium to dark roast for a richer flavor. Let it cool to room temperature for about 10-15 minutes.
  2. In a shaker or a mason jar, add the cherry syrup and vanilla extract. Pour in the cooled coffee, and shake vigorously for 15-20 seconds until well combined.
  3. Fill a tall glass with ice cubes, ensuring to use larger cubes to minimize dilution.
  4. Slowly pour your milk or milk alternative over the ice in the glass, filling about half of the glass to achieve a creamy consistency.
  5. Carefully pour the cherry vanilla coffee blend over the milk to create a beautiful layered effect.
  6. Top with whipped cream, if desired, and garnish with fresh cherries for presentation.
  7. Serve immediately and enjoy your refreshing Cherry Vanilla Iced Latte while it's cold.
