Best of CU | Best Coffee Order on Campus: Vanilla latte

Best+of+CU+%7C+Best+Coffee+Order+on+Campus%3A+Vanilla+latte

Think about what your go-to coffee order is right now — might it be a vanilla latte, perchance? With the perfect balance of sweetness from the vanilla and bitterness from the espresso, the vanilla latte is sure to make everyone happy. 

The vanilla latte is a classic — whether you order it hot or iced, with blonde espresso or regular, with whole milk, oat milk or soy milk — it’s a drink for everyone, everywhere. There aren’t many coffee shops that won’t have this drink, that’s for sure. 

A hot latte is made by adding two-thirds steamed milk to a third espresso. Pour in some vanilla syrup and add a layer of foamed milk on top, and you have the student-favorite coffee drink.

Next time you’re at Caffe Paradiso, Espresso Royale or even Starbucks, whether it will be your first time or your 100th time, consider ordering a vanilla latte to celebrate its win as the best coffee order on campus. You deserve a little treat.
