The Story Behind the Costa Brand

Costa Coffee was founded in London in 1971 by Sergio and Bruno Costa and has grown to become the nation favourite coffee shop.

• The Signature Blend: The Costa coffee brand is built on their famous Mocha Italia blend, which took 112 attempts to perfect. They bring this same dedication to their instant range to ensure it meets high street standards.
• Seasonal Favourites: Costa is renowned for its innovative limited edition menus, and the Maple Hazel Latte has become a quintessential part of the autumn tradition for Costa coffee UK fans.
• Masterful Craft: Every batch is slow roasted to ensure a smooth and rich flavour that remains consistent whether served in a store or from a sachet at home.

🌍 Costa Commitment To The Planet

Costa ensures that your daily coffee ritual supports global conservation and ethical trade through rigorous standards.

• Waste Reduction Strategy: The portion controlled format is specifically designed to minimise product waste while ensuring consistent barista quality in every cup.

🔥 How Do I Make Costa Maple Hazel Latte?

To get the best results from your Costa instant coffee sachets and learn how to make a professional maple cloud latte at home, correct preparation is important. Specific hydration techniques are required to activate the dairy proteins and release the maple volatiles.

The Barista Home Serve Brewing Guide:

• Measure: Empty one 17g sachet into your favourite pre warmed mug.
• Water: Use hot but not boiling water at approximately 85 degrees Celsius. Expert Tip: Boiling water can scorch the dairy and coffee notes; waiting 30 seconds after the kettle boils ensures a smoother result.
• Pour: Add 200ml of water while stirring thoroughly. The Double Stir Technique: Wait for 20 seconds then stir again. This allows the proteins to fully hydrate for a thicker foam head.

The Iced Maple Hazel Refresher Recipe:

• Why Try It: This method creates a refreshing and indulgent iced latte that maintains its syrupy depth, perfect for those who prefer their seasonal coffee chilled.
• The Prep: Dissolve one sachet in 50ml of hot water to create a potent latte concentrate.
• The Chill: Fill a tall glass with large ice cubes and pour the hot concentrate directly over them to lock in the aromatics.
• The Serve: Top with 150ml of cold milk or a plant based alternative for a professional finish.

The Maple Cloud Latte Recipe:

• The Base: Prepare one sachet as per the Barista Home Serve instructions using only 150ml of water.
• The Foam: Gently heat 50ml of whole milk and froth until a dense micro foam forms.
• The Combine: Pour the frothed milk over the prepared latte. This creates an ultra thick foam layer that perfectly carries the toasted hazelnut aromatics.

How Does Costa Maple Hazel Latte Compare to:

• Standard Instant Coffee: When compared to basic instant granules, this latte offers a far more complex and indulgent profile. It includes high quality dairy and seasonal flavours that standard coffee lacks, providing a barista quality texture in seconds.
• High Street Costa Maple Hazel Latte: While a store prepared drink is the gold standard, these sachets provide the same signature flavour profile at a fraction of the cost. It offers significant value for a 2026 budget without the requirement to leave your home.
• Generic Hazelnut Syrups: Many people use plain coffee and nut syrups which can be overly sweet or high in calories. Costa provides an all in one low calorie solution at only 60 calories per mug with a much more balanced maple depth.

🫖 Brewing The Perfect Cup of Costa Maple Hazel Latte, 5 Sachets 85g

• Measure: Empty one full sachet (or 2 to 3 heaped teaspoons of powder) into a warmed mug.
• Pour: Add 200ml of just boiled water or 65°C steamed milk; for the smoothest cup use water that is hot but no longer at a rolling boil.
• Stir: Stir briskly for 10 seconds until the powder is fully dissolved; lumps mean the water was either too cool or you stopped stirring too soon.
• Finish: Top with whipped cream, a dusting of cocoa or cinnamon, or a drizzle of caramel syrup for a cafe style finish.
• Iced version: Dissolve the sachet in 80ml of hot water first, then pour over a tall glass of ice and top with 200ml of cold milk. The hot first step prevents lumps in the cold milk.
• Best with: a buttery croissant for breakfast, almond biscotti at coffee break, or shortbread in the afternoon.
