Vanilla Syrup for Office Coffee Corners and Automatic Coffee Machines

Many workplaces use an automatic coffee machine to prepare espresso, long coffee, cappuccino or latte macchiato, depending on the machine's functions.

MONIN Vanilla Syrup 250ml can make everyday coffee more interesting without changing the machine's settings or preparation process.

Each employee or visitor can personalise their drink by adding the desired amount of syrup directly to the cup.

It is a practical addition to coffee corners in accounting offices, law firms, company headquarters, bank branches, reception areas and meeting rooms, where coffee is offered to both employees and guests.

The compact bottle also makes it easy to offer several flavours without requiring much space.

Office coffee corner idea: an automatic coffee machine, suitable cappuccino cups, teaspoons and two or three different MONIN 250ml syrups. Guests can choose between regular coffee and a flavoured alternative.

Important: always add syrup directly to the cup or glass. Never pour it into the coffee machine's water tank, bean container or internal dispensing system.

Recipe: Vanilla Cappuccino – At Home or in the Office

A regular cappuccino can become a vanilla-flavoured coffee in just a few seconds, even when prepared with an office automatic coffee machine.

Ingredients for one cup:

• 1 espresso, approximately 30–40ml;
• 100–120ml warm, foamed milk;
• 10–15ml MONIN Vanilla Syrup.

Preparation: pour the vanilla syrup into the cup. Prepare the cappuccino directly over the syrup using an automatic or traditional espresso machine. Stir gently if you prefer an evenly distributed flavour.

For a less sweet drink, start with 10ml of syrup and adjust to taste.

At the office: each person can add syrup individually, either before or after preparing the coffee. No changes to the machine settings are required.

Suggested recipe. Adjust the syrup quantity according to personal preference.

Recipe: Vanilla Latte Macchiato – For Home

Vanilla pairs particularly well with milk-based coffee drinks such as latte macchiato, where its delicate flavour can complement the espresso without overwhelming it.

Ingredients for one glass:

• 1 espresso, approximately 30–40ml;
• 180–200ml warm milk;
• 15ml MONIN Vanilla Syrup;
• Milk foam, according to preference.

Preparation: add the syrup to the glass, pour in the warm milk and milk foam, then add the espresso.

Stir before drinking if you prefer an evenly distributed vanilla flavour.

This recipe can also be adapted for automatic coffee machines that prepare latte macchiato.

Recipe: Vanilla Hot Chocolate

Vanilla complements cocoa and adds a fragrant note to homemade hot chocolate.

Ingredients for one mug:

• 200ml milk;
• 20g dark or milk chocolate;
• 10ml MONIN Vanilla Syrup;
• Whipped cream, optional.

Preparation: warm the milk without bringing it to a vigorous boil. Add the chocolate and stir until melted, then mix in the vanilla syrup.

Serve in a regular mug and garnish with whipped cream if desired.

If using milk chocolate, consider reducing the syrup quantity to avoid making the drink overly sweet.

MONIN Vanilla vs Salted Caramel – Which Is Better for Coffee?
