Tips and swaps
- Swap the syrup: First Bloom · Vanilla Syrup — real vanilla, flecks and all. Warm, round, and strong enough to taste through a 16 oz latte.
- Swap the syrup: Low Lamp · Brown Sugar Syrup — real dark brown sugar, cooked slow. No cinnamon, no flavorings, just the caramel depth cold brew wants.
