Coconutmilk Cascara Latte

A coconut milk cascara latte is tasty, delicious and different from other flavored lattes that you have tried.

It’s coffee flavored with a syrup made from the outer skin of the shell that encapsulates the coffee bean. Cascara syrup is difficult to find and to make it at home you need to make it yourself.

If you make the syrup at home, use cascara sugar instead of regular sugar for a more authentic and deeper flavor.

Use equal amounts of cascara sugar and filtered water and a tablespoon of cascara and heat gently for 5 min at a low heat to help sugar to fully dissolve into the water and your cascara to extract the flavors into your syrup.

Starbucks Coconut Milk Latte

It is only normal to talk about both a Starbucks coconut milk latte and a cascara latte together as both are very similar drinks with the difference between both drinks being the use of the cascara syrup to flavor a cascara latte.

Of course, the use of the sprinkling of cascara sugar in a straight line to decorate makes it easy to tell both drinks apart.

Curiously, this is something that is missing for many coffee shops for a coconut latte: a sprinkle of coconut flakes to decorate it and bring around a different texture and more of a coconut flavor.

As a matter of fact, the coconut milk used in Starbucks drinks is a single origin coconut sourced from Sumatra, Indonesia.
