Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Prepare the Cherry Syrup: In a medium saucepan, combine 2 cups of pitted cherries, ½ cup of water, and ½ cup of sugar or monk fruit. Heat the mixture over medium heat, stirring until it simmers. This takes about 5 minutes when the sugar dissolves and syrup thickens.
  2. Strain the Syrup: Once thickened, remove from heat and strain through a fine-mesh strainer into a glass container to remove solids. Let syrup cool to room temperature.
  3. Assemble the Iced Latte: Fill a large glass with ice. Pour homemade cherry syrup to coat the bottom.
  4. Froth the Milk: Froth together ½ cup of vanilla almond milk and 2 tablespoons of vanilla almond creamer until frothy.
  5. Pour the Coffee: Brew your favorite coffee and pour it over the ice and cherry syrup, creating beautiful layers.
  6. Mix and Enjoy: Stir gently to combine and enjoy your refreshing Cherry Vanilla Iced Latte!
