As a side note, I personally wanted to give you a little bit of a baseline recipe and allow you to get extra creative with it. Because for example, depending on the day, I love enjoying mine by frothing the coffee to create a delicious foam that goes on top of my latte but sometimes my homemade cold foam goes so so well with the toasty brown sugar honey cinnamon flavors as well! So make sure that you really play around with what you add and how much of it you add to create YOUR perfect drink!

Frequently Asked Questions – FAQ

How do I store leftover Teddy Graham Latte?

First thing you’ll want to do is remove the ice so that it doesn’t melt and water down your drink. To do so, either fish the cubes out with a fork or pour the liquid from one cup to another through a fine-mesh sieve. Once the ice is removed, store it in an airtight container like a mason jar and put it in the fridge. It should last for 3-4 days.

What kind of milk should I use?

You can honestly use whatever type of milk you want! Whole milk will give the best texture, but 2% or fat-free milk will be fine. Or any of the plant-based options like oat milk or almond milk will work as well.

What kind of coffee should I use?

Freshly brewed espresso or strongly brewed drip coffee are preferred for flavor reasons. But for the sake of saving time, you can use instant coffee or cold brew if it’s easier or just more convenient for you.

Can I use a substitute for the brown sugar?

Sure! Swap the brown sugar and even the honey for a sugar-free alternative like brown monk fruit sweetener, stevia, or sugar-free syrup to fit your preference. Just know that the Teddy Graham latte will taste different because the brown sugar and honey add flavor but it will still be a delicious sweet treat regardless.

Can I make this drink hot instead of iced?

Absolutely! Just heat your milk before adding it to the espresso mixture and skip the ice for a warm version.

How can I make my Teddy Graham Latte even better?

There are so many fun ways to take this latte to the next level! Try these:

• Cookie Butter Dream: Stir in cookie butter and sprinkle Biscoff crumbles on top instead of the teddy grahams.
• S’mores Style: Add toasted marshmallow fluff, a drizzle of chocolate, and crushed graham crackers.
• Cinnamon Roll Vibes: Mix in brown sugar and cinnamon, then top with vanilla cold foam.
