Folgers instant latte French vanilla was tested both hot and cold, but failed to impress due to its overly sweet flavor profile and lack of coffee taste. Compared to other brands, it ranks poorly, providing more of a vanilla milk experience than a latte. While it might serve as a sugar substitute, the unremarkable aftertaste and heavy sweetness detract from its quality. Despite a range of instant coffee options explored, Folgers did not meet the expectations of a true flavored coffee experience.
Unfortunately, I was left disappointed in yet another French vanilla flavored instant coffee. The overall product is similar to Hills Bros. French vanilla with its overly sweet profile and lack of coffee undertones.
Ultimately, rather than using the word latte, I think a better description for this instant drink would be vanilla milk, as I detected zero coffee flavor to complement the sweet vanilla.
I didn’t notice much difference between hot or iced - neither option impressed me much. Folgers instant latte French vanilla gets a slight bump up from last because its aftertaste is a smidge less offending.
The main ranking factor was taste. I wanted a flavored cup of coffee, not sweet, flavored milk...
Some instant flavors are available cold as well, and I added those in for a good mix.
