Caramel Latte (Print Version)
# Ingredients:
01 -
2 tablespoons of sweet vanilla syrup.
02 -
Caramel topping as needed to decorate.
03 -
12 ounces of milk (low-fat, whole, or non-dairy).
04 -
2 ounces of freshly brewed espresso.
# Instructions:
01 -
Brew some espresso with either a stovetop espresso maker or an espresso machine. You can swap this out for 4 ounces of strong, freshly brewed coffee if needed.
02 -
Gently heat up your milk, then whip it into foam using a whisk, a frother, or a steam wand from an espresso machine.
03 -
Mix the frothy milk with the vanilla syrup in your favorite cup.
04 -
Carefully pour the espresso right on top of the foam to leave a nice mark on the surface.
05 -
Drizzle caramel all around the edges of your cup in two rings, then make a checkerboard pattern over the foam in the center.
# Notes:
01 -
Both regular milk and plant-based milks work fine for this recipe.
02 -
If you don’t have espresso, double the amount of strong coffee to replace it.
03 -
For added sugar, a bit of caramel sauce can go in the bottom of the cup before mixing.
