Our banana syrup transforms the everyday latte into a nuanced coffee drink with notes of vanilla. The light, rich flavor profile works well with espresso and is super easy to modify based on mood. Try it with almond milk, coconut milk or oat milk for a rich, complex flavor.

Directions

To make the latte, in a small cup, combine the banana syrup and espresso. Let sit for 1 minute, then stir until the syrup dissolves.

To make the cold foam, in another small bowl, combine the cream, syrup and salt. Using a hand frother, froth until the mixture has doubled in volume.

To make the garnish, arrange the banana slices on a baking tray and sprinkle with sugar. Using a kitchen torch according to the manufacturer’s instructions, melt and brûlée the sugar until caramelized.
