Ingredients
1 cup milk
2 tablespoons strawberry syrup
1 teaspoon honey or sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 shot espresso or 1/4 cup strong coffee
2 tablespoons whipped cream
1 teaspoon crushed freeze-dried strawberries or pink sprinkles
1 tablespoon white chocolate chips optional
Instructions
1. Add the milk to a small saucepan and warm it over medium-low heat until steaming, but do not boil.
2. Whisk in the strawberry syrup, honey or sugar, vanilla extract, and white chocolate chips if using.
3. Continue whisking until the mixture is smooth, creamy, and pale pink.
4. Froth the warm strawberry milk with a handheld frother, blender, or whisk.
5. Pour the espresso or strong coffee into a mug.
6. Add the frothed pink milk over the coffee and stir gently.
7. Top with whipped cream and crushed freeze-dried strawberries or pink sprinkles.
8. Serve immediately while warm and creamy.
Notes
Use strawberry syrup for the smoothest texture and brightest pink color.
Do not boil the milk, because gentle heat keeps the latte creamy and fresh-tasting.
For a caffeine-free version, skip the espresso and enjoy it as warm strawberry milk.
