Find a few minutes to flavor your moment with the new Tate+Lyle® Gourmet Beverage Syrups. You can boost your normal cup of joe with just a couple ingredients and turn it into one of my favorites--the vanilla latte. No fancy equipment needed! Brilliant!
Because these rejuvenating moments can be so few, I often like to make the most of them. One way I do this is by making my coffee "my way" with Tate+Lyle® Gourmet Beverage Syrups. If you follow me on Instagram, you have seen that I typically use Tate+Lyle® Fairtrade Certified Sugars in my coffee, specifically their raw cane sugar. Guess what? As of this fall, they now have flavored syrups available in Caramel, Hazelnut, and Vanilla! The Tate+Lyle® Gourmet Beverage Syrups come in 12.7 fl. oz. bottles and are great for flavoring your coffee, tea, soda, smoothies, cocktails, etc. Since 1878, Tate+Lyle® has been a trusted sweetener brand in the U.K. and just recently available throughout the U.S.! You can find coupons for the flavored syrups in the Sunday Newspaper, December 7th, and also in issues of First for Women and Women's World. To download a coupon for $1.50 off you can go here!
Vanilla Latte with Tate+Lyle® Gourmet Beverage Syrups
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup strong brewed coffee
- 1/2 cup low-fat milk
- 2 tablespoons Tate+Lyle® Vanilla Pure Cane Syrup
Instructions
- Pour 1/2 cup hot strong brewed coffee into an 8 ounce coffee mug. To make the foam, pour milk and syrup into a mason jar (at least pint size jar). Tightly cover with the lid and shake for 30 seconds. Remove the lid and microwave on high for another 30 seconds. Using a spoon to hold back the foam, pour the milk into the coffee. Spoon the milk foam over top and serve immediately.

First of all, I'm obsessed with your coffee mug! So pretty 🙂 How do I spend "me" time? Hmmm. I like to snuggle up with my kindle, or my husband while watching a movie, or even just going for a nice walk with my dog and husband! Not technically "me" time, but it's when I feel the most relaxed!
Jennifer @ Show Me the Yummy says
Oh. And now I'm reeeeally craving a cup of coffee 😉

I love grinding fresh coffee beans and making a cup Chemex style before I settle down with an open Bible. Like you, I do not hurry through the brew. Then I go for a nice long walk with my two English setters.
Anne says
When I want to carve out a little "me time," I make a nice hot cup of tea and park on the couch with my laptop (which is exactly what I'm doing right now). For the icing on the cake, my cat curls up next to me and purrs, and the dog snores at the other end of the couch (both of which are also happening right now). Doesn't get more peaceful than that!

That looks so good! I use your mason jar froth recipe idea all the time! My "me" time has been in short supply lately other than just trying to sleep (thanks, toddler + pregnancy fatigue!), but I do enjoy a warm beverage while curled up on my couch during nap time. I either read, study, or catch a favorite tv episode and just chill for a few minutes!
