How to Make the Best Maple Latte

There’s nothing quite like the smooth, naturally sweet flavor of a homemade maple latte. This simple but elegant coffee drink brings together the bold richness of espresso with the warming sweetness of pure maple syrup—creating the perfect balance for your morning cup or afternoon pick-me-up.

Making a maple latte at home is refreshingly simple. No fancy equipment or complex techniques required—just quality espresso, good maple syrup, and your milk of choice. In just five minutes, you can have a café-quality drink that tastes far better than what you’d get at a coffee shop, without the expensive price tag or long wait times.

The key to a perfect maple latte is not overcomplicating it. Let the natural maple flavor shine through alongside your espresso, and use the milk frother to create that creamy, velvety texture that makes these drinks so satisfying. Whether you’re enjoying it as a cozy winter beverage or a refreshing iced drink in warmer months, this maple latte will quickly become one of your go-to coffee recipes.

Ingredients

Maple Latte

Instructions

Maple Latte

  1. Brew the espresso.
  2. Mix the maple syrup into the hot espresso until combined.
  3. Heat the milk using a milk frother. Alternatively, you can heat the milk in a saucepan over medium-low heat while whisking until the milk starts to steam.

Notes

  • Use high-quality pure maple syrup for the best flavor.
  • Any milk of choice works—whole milk, oat milk, almond milk, or dairy-free alternatives all taste great.
  • For an iced version, brew espresso, add maple syrup, and pour over ice with cold milk.
