Coffee, Hot: Caramel Macchiato

Source of Recipe

Food Mixes and Do Ahead Meals


Recipe Introduction

The average coffee mug is probably equivalent to a Tall (12-oz/355 mL). I am not following precise Starbucks standards, though if you must know it's properly one shot of espresso, about .75 oz syrup (.25 oz per 4 oz liquid capacity).

List of Ingredients

milk
espresso
vanilla syrup
your favorite caramel sauce



Recipe

In a regular-sized coffee mug, add vanilla syrup and steamed milk. Top with
milk foam and add freshly brewed espresso through the foam. Drizzle with
caramel sauce.

Iced Caramel Macchiato



Same ingredients, plus some small ice cubes and (optional) whipped cream

In a pint glass or iced tea glass (we're assuming 16 oz), add vanilla syrup
and fill about 3/5 of the way with cold milk. Add ice almost to the top and
pour espresso (2 shots would be typical) over the top. If you've done it right,
the espresso will mix in only about halfway down without stirring. If adding
whipped cream, add it here. Drizzle the top with caramel and enjoy.
