Bakery–inspired and iced, this latte layers creamy banana with warming chai, bold espresso, and a ribbon of caramel — comforting yet café–fresh for sweet coffee builds all year. Finished with light milk foam; optional banana “breadcrumbs” add playful texture.
Serves: 1
Makes: 16 oz.
Ingredients:
1 Tbsp DaVinci Caramel Sauce
4 ounces Island Oasis Shelf Stable Banana Mix
2 ounces Oregon Chai Original Concentrate
2 ounces skim milk
2 shots espresso
1 tsp banana breadcrumbs, optional (for garnish)
Instructions:
Step 1 Add ice to a 16–ounce glass or cup. Drizzle caramel sauce into the glass.
Step 2 In a mixing cup, combine banana mix and chai concentrate; pour over ice.
Step 3 Pour espresso into the glass.
Step 4 Froth the milk and pour over the drink. Sprinkle with banana breadcrumbs and serve.
Extra Twist:
For added depth and sweetness, whisk DaVinci Macadamia Nut, Caramel Pecan, or Gingerbread Syrup into the milk before frothing.
Tasting Notes:
Chai spice, banana, espresso, and milk deliver cozy banana–bread vibes with a creamy finish. Caramel adds decadence; note that banana breadcrumbs can deflate foam quickly — consider a mini banana muffin on a stick as a garnish instead.
