    So I've gathered together your favorite coffee drinks containing vanilla syrup so you can skip the coffee shop and make a delicious coffee at home with basic ingredients. Even if you have never made a coffee drink at home these recipes will show you the best way to get in the coffee groove.

    Why These are the Best Coffee Recipes with Vanilla Syrup

    These recipes contain homemade syrups with real vanilla flavor and store-bought syrup. They range from strong coffee to mild cold brew and even an almond milk and oat milk option. All you will need are basic ingredients like whole milk, heavy cream, coffee beans or brewed coffee, sugar, and pure vanilla extract or vanilla beans or paste.

    Each of these recipes is a great way to cut your coffee spend in at least half and have a perfect drink each and every time. You'll find a delicious iced vanilla latte, several versions of chocolate cream cold brew, a boozy Bailey's latte, and a French vanilla iced coffee Dalgona style.

    Even if it is your first time making a homemade vanilla iced coffee, you'll find all the details you need to be successful. Be sure to read the post and the recipe card for special pro tips.

    So, let's get started so you can make your favorite Starbucks-inspired coffee in your own kitchen!
