Starbucks Iced Apple Crisp Macchiato
Description
This recipe starts by preparing the apple crisp syrup, which is crafted by simmering apple juice, brown sugar, cinnamon sticks, nutmeg, chopped apple, lemon juice, and salt. After simmering and cooling, the syrup is strained and refrigerated. A simple brown sugar syrup is also made by dissolving brown sugar in warm water and storing it chilled. To assemble the iced macchiato, measures of apple crisp syrup and brown sugar syrup are poured over ice with milk, then topped with espresso.
The resulting drink balances the sweet, spiced apple flavor with caramel notes from brown sugar and the boldness of espresso. The ice keeps it refreshing while the milk softens the intensity of coffee and spices.
This macchiato is suitable for enjoying as a seasonal iced coffee treat and can be adjusted in sweetness or spice by altering syrup amounts.
