How to Make Starbucks Snickerdoodle Latte at Home – A Copycat Recipe for Making Starbucks Snickerdoodle Latte
The process of making this drink is surprisingly easy, and it can serve as a quick and convenient fix when you need to try drinks other than the classic coffee cup.
Equipment
- PanA mug
- Whisk and bowl
- A flask or mason jar
Ingredients
- ½ teaspoon of cinnamon
- ½ cup of black coffee
- Four teaspoons of brown sugar
- 1 cup of full-fat milk (or any dairy-free option you choose such as coconut milk)
- A small dusting of nutmeg (optional)
Instructions
- Brew the coffee in the usual method, and transfer it to a large mug.
- Take another cup and pour a full cup of milk into it. Transfer this milk into a pan, then heat it until it starts simmering. Pour this milk into a flask.
- In the milk, add nutmeg, cinnamon, and brown sugar. Close the flask tightly and shake it vigorously for approximately one minute.
- Open the flask lid carefully and transfer the milk mixture to the mug that contains the coffee.
- If you prefer, you can top this mixture off with extra cinnamon and sugar, and enjoy.
Notes
- Sugar and cinnamon are the cornerstones of the recipe and give it the snickerdoodle cookie taste. Therefore, do not skip them when making the drink at home.
- You can use a milk steamer if you have one, instead of shaking the milk mixture in a flask. This will not affect the drink’s flavor.
- Coconut milk is the best dairy-free option because it creates a thicker foam compared to soy or almond milk.
- To turn it into an iced latte option, simply use your coffee maker’s “iced” setting.
