- 150ml milk, cold
- 1 double shot of espresso (approximately 60ml)

Total Time: 15 minutes
Servings: 1
Instructions:
1. Begin by preparing the tiramisu cream. In a mixing bowl, combine the heavy cream, mascarpone cheese, and sugar. Whisk well until the mixture becomes smooth and reaches soft peaks. This will create a creamy base that encapsulates the tiramisu essence.
2. Fill your serving glass to the brim with ice, ensuring a chilled base for your latte.
3. Gently pour the cold milk over the ice, leaving some space at the top for the espresso and tiramisu cream.
4. Brew a double shot of espresso using your espresso maker or coffee machine. If you don't have one, strong coffee can work as a substitute.
5. Once your espresso is ready, pour it gently over the milk, allowing it to create a beautiful layer.
6. Carefully spoon the tiramisu cream on top of the espresso, allowing it to float and form the final layer of your latte.
7. Dust the top with a generous amount of unsweetened cocoa powder, enhancing the tiramisu flavor.
8. Garnish with a ladyfinger biscuit placed delicately atop the cream.
9. Stir your Iced Tiramisu Latte before drinking to combine all the flavors into one luscious beverage.
10. Enjoy your creation, ideally with a moment of relaxation to truly savor each sip.
Cooking Tips:
- If you prefer a sweeter drink, adjust the amount of sugar in the tiramisu cream to suit your taste.
- Use a chilled glass to keep your latte cool for longer.
- Brew the espresso just before assembling the drink to ensure maximum freshness and flavor.
