Blueberry Foam

Assembled Iced Blueberry Latte
- ¼ cup blueberry sryup
- ¾ cup milk of choice
- 1 shot espresso or to taste
- blueberry foam
Instructions
Blueberry Syrup
- Place the blueberries, water, sugar, and cinnamon in a medium saucepan. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce to a gentle boil and cook for about 20 minutes, until it has reduced and thickened. Stir occasionally and keep a close eye on it as it cooks.
- Remove from the heat and let it cool down. Stir in the blueberry flavor paste until combined. Then blend until smooth in a blender and store in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks in a tightly sealed container.
Froth
- Froth the half and half together with the blueberry syrup until light and foamy. You can use a milk frother for the easiest method, or pour both into a small jar, seal it tightly, and shake vigorously until frothy.
Assembling the iced latte
- Add the syrup to the bottom of a large glass, then fill the glass with ice. Pour in the milk, followed by the espresso, then pour the blueberry froth over the top. You can easily adjust the recipe to suit your taste, whether you prefer it sweeter, stronger, or with a little more blueberry flavor.
Notes
*Check out the Blueberry Flavor Paste from ifiGOURMET Provisions It is a concentrated flavoring paste made with natural flavor and real blueberry pieces, and it tastes like wild blueberries freshly picked from the forest!!
