Share:
Ingredients
- 6 cup milk
- 2 oz espresso depending on how strong you like your coffee
- 1 Tbsp Vanilla Syrup
- Caramel sauce for drizzling
- Whipped Cream optional
Instructions
- Start by brewing espresso. While the espresso brews, warm milk and vanilla syrup together on the stove top or in microwave.
- When milk and vanilla mixture is hot, carefully froth milk with milk frother or in a glass jar.
- Place the vanilla milk mixture in your cup.
- Pour the espresso over the milk mixture. Top with caramel drizzle and whipped cream if desired.
Notes
- Do you have to use espresso?
- If you don’t have a way to make espresso, you can use regular coffee. Just make it stronger than you normally would and double the amount. For espresso you need two ounces, so for regular strong-brewed coffee, you will need four ounces.
- Can you froth almond milk or oat milk?
- Yes, you can froth nut milk. It won’t be as frothy as whole milk but they will work!
- Can you use vanilla extract instead of vanilla syrup?
- No, I don’t recommend that because they aren’t the same thing. Vanilla syrup is a type of flavored simple syrup made with sugar and water. It’s used to flavor all kinds of coffee drinks.
- Can you make it ahead?
- This drink is best when it’s made fresh. If you make parts of it ahead I can’t say for sure how good it will be when you warm it up.
- Want it sweeter? Add more vanilla syrup.
- Need a little more kick? Add more espresso or coffee to the drink to get an extra caffeine boost!
- Love caramel? Go ahead and stir in some extra caramel sauce to the warm milk for more caramel flavor in the drink.
