I have a serious Starbucks habit and the math finally caught up with me โ€” $7 a drink, sometimes twice a day, every day.

So I started reverse-engineering my favorites at home, one drink at a time. Three years and a lot of testing later, this is the full collection.

Iced lattes, cold brews, syrups, cold foams, egg bites, cake pops, holiday drinks, and bakery items โ€” all of them tested in my kitchen and made with simple ingredients you probably already have.

Bookmark this page. It updates every time I publish a new Starbucks copycat recipe.

Iced Coffee Drinks

1) Copycat Iced Caramel Macchiato

The Iced Caramel Macchiato is one of the most ordered drinks at Starbucks for a reason โ€” creamy vanilla, espresso, and ribbons of caramel layered over ice. This copycat nails the exact ratios so you get the same drink at home for a fraction of the cost.

2) Vanilla Iced Coffee

The simplest Starbucks order, made better at home. Brewed coffee, homemade vanilla syrup, ice, and a splash of milk. Three minutes start to finish.
