Ingredients

  • 2 shots espresso
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 tablespoon simple syrup
  • 1 tablespoon caramel syrup

Instructions

  • Brew the espresso according to your machine's instructions.
  • Heat the milk and froth (create foam). If your espresso machine has a frothing wand, you can do these at the same time. Or you can use a milk frother, or heat in a pan and use a handheld frothing wand or even a whisk.
  • Add the simple syrup to your coffee mug.
  • Then pour in the milk and foam.
  • Then pour the fresh espresso through the foam. Drizzle the caramel sauce on top.

Notes

I typically use 2% or whole milk, but any milk or milk alternative can work fine. 
Sometimes I drizzle some of the caramel sauce along the side of the coffee mug in addition to the top. It’s up to you!
