There’s a new Starbucks drink in town — the Cinnamon Shortbread Latte — and signs for it suck me in every time I step foot into a Target or Kroger with a Starbucks. This limited-edition beverage blends espresso with milk, incorporates notes of brown butter and vanilla, and is topped with a sprinkling of nutmeg and cinnamon.
GOOD news! I’ve come up with a yummy copycat Starbucks Cinnamon Shortbread Iced Latte Recipe, which means you’ll be able to continue making this treat at home long after it has left your local Starbucks location. I think this recipe is as good or even better than Starbucks! The cinnamon flavor adds a warm feel to your average latte.
A good bean makes a good latte, and Lavazza is the best I’ve found! I make iced lattes and go back and forth between Lavazza Gran Crema Espresso and Lavazza Super Crema Expresso, depending on what is cheaper on Amazon at the time I need it.
Amazon sells Lavazza in whole bean, ground and K-Cup.
Now that I’ve laid the framework, here’s the recipe you’ve been waiting for…
