Drinking Caramel Recipe
Description
This recipe for Drinking Caramel starts by boiling organic light brown sugar and water until the sugar darkens and develops toasted notes. Slowly whisking in heavy cream integrates the caramelized sugar and cream into a velvety sauce. Adding sea salt and vanilla extract balances and enhances the flavor, while a brief simmer thickens the mixture to a consistency suitable for drinking.
The resulting caramel has a rich, sweet taste with a gentle salt contrast and fragrant vanilla undertone. Served warm in small cups, it offers a comforting treat, often consumed as a sweet drink or used to enrich coffee-based beverages like espresso.
Ingredients
- 1 cup light brown sugar Wholesome!™ Organic brand
- 2 tablespoons water
- 3 cups heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon salt sea salt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Place the Wholesome!™ Organic Light Brown Sugar in a large deep sauté pan. Add the water and turn the heat on medium. Bring the sugar to a low boil. Allow the sugar to boil until it darkens to a deep brown and smells toasted, 5-7 minutes.
- Slowly, carefully, whisk in the heavy cream. The sugar will boil up at first, then firm up, but will eventually loosen and blend into the cream.
- Add the salt and vanilla extract. Stir and simmer another 2-3 minutes to thicken. Ladle into espresso cups and serve warm.
