# **Vanilla Oat Latte**

Vanilla syrup blends with rich espresso to create a sweet, aromatic base. Ice fills the cup, followed by creamy almond milk for a light, nutty touch. A cloud of whipped milk foam crowns the drink, finished with a sprinkle of crunchy almond bits—smooth, refreshing, and beautifully balanced.
