Iced Banana Latte
Banana syrup brings a rounded fruit note to a simple iced latte. This version keeps the ingredient list short: a little homemade syrup, chilled milk, ice, and espresso. Stir before drinking so the sweetness does not stay at the bottom of the glass.

A FEW USEFUL DETAILS
Before your
next pour.
The syrup is strained rather than blended banana, so the drink stays relatively smooth. Banana intensity varies with fruit ripeness; begin with the stated quantity before adding more.
For 60 ml strong brewed coffee instead of espresso, reduce the milk to 120 ml. The flavor and appearance will differ from an espresso version.
Use our banana syrup recipe for the base. Milk or oat drink is a preference, not a claim that every substitute has identical ingredients or allergen status.
A little more
to know.
Can I use banana purée instead?
It changes the texture substantially and can settle. This recipe is designed around the strained syrup; blend a separate drink if you prefer a thick banana milk.
Can I prepare it ahead?
Prepare the syrup separately and refrigerate it under its storage directions. Assemble the drink just before serving so the ice does not dilute it while waiting.
