Iced Crème Brûlée Latte
Iced Crème Brûlée Latte
Who doesn’t love crime brûlée? So delicious and such a treat when a restaurant has it for dessert. I had the most amazing espresso crème brûlée when I was in New York some years ago. So delicious that this drink was inspired by that.
You will need a blow torch to create this drink. If you don’t have one I’m not sure how you could caramelize the sugar on top. Comment below if anyone has any ideas! But other than that the ingredients are pretty simple. As always for the sweet cream I recommend a handheld frother to mix it. The sweet cream on top really helps create a good thick base for the sugar to caramelize so don’t skip on the sweet cream :)
I hope you enjoy!

The Iced Crème Brûlée Latte combines rich espresso with creamy vanilla flavors and a layer of sweet cream foam for a decadent treat. To achieve that signature crème brûlée flavor, it's essential to use high-quality vanilla syrup and caramelize the sugar on top carefully using a blowtorch. If you don’t have a blowtorch, consider broiling the drink briefly in the oven to caramelize the sugar, keeping a close eye to avoid burning. This versatile drink can be customized depending on your taste preferences—try different milk alternatives or add a dash of cinnamon for a twist! For those looking to make it dairy-free, oat milk or almond milk could work wonderfully with the flavors. Perfect for serving at brunch or enjoying on a warm afternoon, the Iced Crème Brûlée Latte not only tastes fantastic but also presents beautifully, making it an excellent addition to any gathering.
