French Toast Latte
French Toast Latte is a cozy, cinnamon-maple latte inspired by classic French toast. This drink blends espresso with warm vanilla, maple syrup, and creamy milk, shaken until smooth and silky. Enjoy it iced or hot for the ultimate breakfast-inspired coffee.

- ½ tbsp maple syrup
- ½ tsp vanilla paste or ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- A small dash of cinnamon
- A tiny pinch of flaky salt
- 2 shots espresso
- 1 cup milk of choice
- ice optional
Instructions
- Add maple syrup, vanilla paste, cinnamon, and a small pinch of salt into a shaker or mason jar.
- Pull a double shot of espresso and pour it over the mixture.
- Add ice to fill the shaker halfway.
- Pour in the milk.
- Shake vigorously for 10–15 seconds until the drink feels frothy and well combined.

Notes
- Vanilla paste gives a stronger bakery-style flavor.
- For extra creaminess, use whole milk or oat milk.

- If making it hot, warm, and froth the milk instead of shaking.
- Don’t skip the flaky salt. It enhances the maple flavor beautifully.
