Everyday I treat myself to a Venti Starbucks Skinny Iced Latte, but rather than paying $4…I make it myself! The beauty of this recipe is you can make it without a coffee pot in just a couple of minutes, and you can make it to suit your tastes! If you don’t want the skinny version, just substitute whole milk and regular coffee syrup. If you really want to splurge, use 2 packages of Starbucks Via instant coffee! Now, go ahead and be the Starbucks barista you’ve always wanted to be! Enjoy my copycat Starbucks Skinny Iced Latte recipe and enjoy the savings! (Savings of: $4 per day, $28 per week, $112 per month, $1460 per year!)
Ingredients
- 1 heaping tablespoon instant coffee
- 1/2 cup hot water
- 1 cup nonfat milk or milk of your choice (soy milk, almond milk)
- 3 tablespoons sugar free syrup (or flavor of your choice like caramel or hazelnut)*
Instructions
- Fill a 24 oz. cup half way with ice.**
- Dissolve instant coffee in hot water.
- Pour coffee over ice.
- Add milk and sugar free syrup.
Notes
*Sugar Free coffee syrups are available in the coffee section of your grocery. I’ve also often found them at stores like T.J. Maxx, Marshalls and Homegoods.
**I love to use my Tervis Tumbler with a lid and straw for this, so I can enjoy my Starbucks iced latte on the go!

I’m not a coffee drinker, but this is a great idea! I love those sugar-free flavored syrups in my hot cocoa & Italian sodas!

The beauty of being your own Starbucks barista is you can adjust the amounts to your liking! Try my version first and then adjust according to your tastes.

Yum! I want one right now… alas, I already have enough caffeine in my pregnant body today
How about tomorrow, and maybe you should opt for a small rather than a grande!
Seriously, I would never have thought to make one of these on my own. I just go without so I don’t have to pay the $4. Thanks for sharing this. I’ll have to add the ingredients to my grocery list tomorrow. Yum!
