Description

Indulge in the Viral Cracking Latte, a delicious and visually captivating coffee treat featuring a chocolate-coated cup that cracks delightfully as you enjoy your rich, creamy espresso latte topped with vanilla syrup and milk. Perfect for coffee lovers seeking a fun and flavorful beverage experience.

Ingredients

Scale

Liquid Ingredients

  • 1 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy)
  • 2 shots of espresso or 1/3 cup strong brewed coffee, cooled
  • 1/2–1 tablespoon Monin vanilla syrup or any other syrup, to taste

Chocolate Coating

  • 1/3 cup melted chocolate (dark, milk, or white)

Other

  • Ice cubes

Instructions

  1. Melt the chocolate: Place the chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl and heat in 30-second increments, stirring thoroughly between each interval until completely melted and smooth.
  2. Coat the cup: Pour the melted chocolate into a clear plastic cup, swirl it around to coat the inside evenly, and let excess chocolate drip back into the bowl. Freeze the coated cup for a few minutes to allow the chocolate to set and harden.
  3. Assemble the latte: Add ice cubes to the chocolate-coated cup. Then layer the drink by pouring in the Monin vanilla syrup, followed by the milk, and finally the freshly brewed espresso or cooled strong coffee.
  4. Crack the chocolate shell: Capture a video of you cracking the hardened chocolate mold inside the cup for a fun and trendy presentation before stirring the latte well.
  5. Enjoy your latte: Drink the latte with a straw and use a spoon to scoop out and savor the broken chocolate pieces, enhancing the overall flavor and texture experience.

Notes

  • You can use any type of chocolate—dark, milk, or white—according to your taste preference.
  • Adjust the amount of vanilla syrup based on your desired sweetness.
  • Using a clear plastic cup highlights the dramatic visual effect of the cracking chocolate shell.
  • For a non-dairy version, choose plant-based milk such as almond, oat, or soy milk.
  • Ensure the coffee is cooled before assembling to prevent melting the chocolate shell prematurely.
