The iced latte smoothie is a refreshing beverage that combines the smoothness of a café latte with the freshness of a cold smoothie. This type of preparation is very popular in several Latin American countries, where coffee is an essential part of the daily culture. In Mexico, for example, it is commonly known as "café frío" or "iced latte," while in countries like Argentina and Colombia, it is usually called simply iced latte or iced coffee with milk. Its origin is linked to the need to adapt the traditional hot beverage to warmer climates, creating an option that preserves the intense flavor of coffee but with a refreshing touch. Over time, it has gained popularity due to its creamy texture and sweet taste thanks to the inclusion of honey or syrups, becoming a favorite choice for those looking for an energizing and pleasurable drink on hot afternoons.
