Ingredients:
- 2 cups milk (your choice of dairy or plant-based)
- 1 cup rice crispies or cereal of your choice
- 2 bags Lifestyle Food Infusions Rooibos Tea Vanilla flavour
- 2 cups water
- ¼ cup Lifestyle Food honey
- Cold whipped coconut cream, or cream of your choice, for serving
Method:
- In a large pitcher, combine the milk with your chosen cereal. Let it steep for about 15 minutes to infuse the milk with the cereal’s flavours. After steeping, strain the milk to remove the cereal bits, and chill the milk in the refrigerator until it’s cold. This cereal-infused milk will add a unique, subtly sweet base to your latte.
- While the milk is chilling, prepare the rooibos vanilla ice cubes. Heat two cups of water to a boil and steep the Lifestyle Food Infusions Rooibos Tea Vanilla flavour along with the Lifetsyle Food Honey. Allow it to steep until the tea is strong and flavourful, about 10 minutes. Remove the tea bags, and pour the sweetened tea into ice cube molds. Freeze until solid.
- To assemble your iced latte, place several rooibos vanilla ice cubes in a tall glass. Pour the chilled cereal milk over the ice cubes. The ice cubes will slowly melt into the milk, infusing it with the rich flavour of vanilla rooibos.
- Top with Whipped Cream: Add a generous topping of cold whipped coconut cream to your latte.
- Serve immediately and enjoy the interplay of flavours as the rooibos ice cubes begin to melt into the cereal milk, creating a refreshing and flavourful iced latte.

It’s a fantastic way to enjoy the familiar flavours of your favourite cereal in a completely new form. Whether you’re serving this at a morning brunch or as an afternoon pick-me-up, it’s sure to impress with its unique flavours and refreshing taste. Dive into this creative twist on traditional iced lattes and enjoy a deliciously memorable drink experience.
