Gather Your Ingredients

To make a tropical sunset latte, you'll need the following ingredients: 1 shot of espresso, 1 cup of milk, 1 teaspoon of sugar, 1/4 teaspoon of vanilla extract, pink, purple, and orange food coloring.

Prepare the Milk

Pour the milk into a small saucepan and heat it over medium-low heat until it's hot but not boiling. Be sure to stir occasionally to prevent any scorching. Once hot, remove the saucepan from the heat and whisk in the sugar and vanilla extract.

Divide the hot milk into three equal portions. Add a few drops of pink food coloring to the first portion, purple to the second, and orange to the third. Stir each portion until the color is evenly distributed.
