I love caramel macchiatos from Starbucks, but at $4.00 a pop, you can have one everyday of the week for that price by making them at home. Ingredients:
6 ounces coffee (brewed) |
6 ounces milk (steamed) |
1 -2 teaspoon sugar (to taste) or 1 -2 teaspoon splenda sugar substitute (to taste) |
3 teaspoons caramel syrup |
1/2 teaspoon artificial vanilla flavoring |
reddi whipped cream |
caramel syrup, drizzled |
Directions:
1. To make a strong coffee, you can brew a ratio of 3 heaping tbsp of coffee to 6 cups water.
2. Add vanillin to the coffee grinds before making the coffee, that way it will infuse while brewing.
3. Once coffee is done brewing, place milk in a large cup and microwave until hot.
4. In a tall glass combine the coffee, milk, and caramel syrup and stir well.
5. Add sugar in small increments until desired sweetness is achieved, don't forget that the caramel will sweeten this beverage as well.
6. Top with whipped cream and drizzle caramel.
7. Enjoy!
