– Easy to make. Luckily it is super easy to learn how to make this iced vanilla latte recipe! Whether you use store-bought vanilla syrup or homemade vanilla syrup, you will be amazed at how quickly it comes together. – Customizable. Make this blonde vanilla latte recipe as sweet as you'd like! You have complete control over how much simple syrup you add. For a sweet drink, I recommend add an extra tbsp of vanilla simple syrup. – Cheaper than the coffee shop! I am a big fan of a Starbucks copycat recipe because they have all the taste without the hefty price tag. A Starbucks iced vanilla latte at my local one will cost me well over $5. This one will run you under $1.00 per serving! It is the perfect drink to start your morning at a fraction of the price at Starbucks
