Iced Salted Caramel Latte
An iced salted caramel latte from the sachet: a strong syrup over ice, cold milk, a caramel drizzle and a pinch of sea salt.

Iced salted caramel latte is one of summer's most ordered coffees, and the sachet makes a very good one at home. The secret is to keep it strong: whisk the sachet into a thick syrup with just a splash of hot water, so the milk and ice cannot dilute it.

Build it over plenty of ice, lengthen with cold milk, then drizzle caramel and add a pinch of salt to finish. Makes one tall glass.
You'll need
- 1 Costa Salted Caramel Latte sachet (17g)
- 80ml freshly drawn water, brought to a rolling boil then left for 1 minute to drop to about 90C
- 200ml cold whole milk
- 1 teaspoon of caramel sauce, for the drizzle
- A tiny pinch of fine sea salt, for the milk top
- 1 fresh mint sprig, for the rim
- 1 tall 450ml glass, chilled in the freezer for ten minutes
- Enough cubed ice to fill the tumbler (about 250g)
- 1 small heatproof mug
- 1 small balloon whisk
- 1 wide paper or metal straw
Method
- Get a tall glass into the freezer to chill.
- Whisk the sachet with just 80ml of hot water (around 90C) into a thick, glossy caramel syrup.
- Fill the chilled glass with ice and pour the syrup over it.
- Top with cold milk, poured over the back of a spoon to keep it layered.
- Drizzle caramel over the top and finish with a small pinch of sea salt and a sprig of mint.
- Stir the caramel into the warm syrup rather than over the ice, or it sets hard against the cold glass.
