Homemade Caramel Latte
This delicious caramel latte recipe is perfect for chilly mornings and easy to make at home! You only need caramel syrup or sauce, hot milk, and espresso.
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoon caramel sauce plus extra for drizzling
- 1 cup (230ml) whole milk
- 40-60 ml (1.3-2oz) espresso depending on how strong you like it
- whipped cream for topping
Instructions
- In a glass, add the caramel sauce.
- To another cup, add the milk and warm it in the microwave for 50-60 seconds until heated. It shouldn't be boiling. With a hand-held frother or whisk, foam the milk until thick froth forms. You can also shake the milk in a mason jar.
- Pour this milk on top of the caramel.
- Prepare espresso with your preferred method. You can pull a shot, make it on the stovetop with a Moka pot, brew in a coffee machine or even use instant coffee. If you are using instant coffee, mix 1 tablespoon of instant coffee with 2 tablespoon of hot water before pouring it in.
- Pour this espresso over the milk. Mix lightly to dissolve the caramel but don't mess up the layers.
- Top with whipped cream and drizzle some caramel sauce. Enjoy hot!

Notes
- You can use either caramel syrup or caramel sauce. Keep in mind, if you are using caramel syrup you will need less amount as it is more potent in flavour.
- I use an aerosol cream (also called squirty cream). The whipped cream comes in a can and is perfect for topping drinks. You can also add a dollop of homemade or store-bought whipped cream.
- Brown or white sugar can be added according to your liking.
- Read different ways to brew espresso to find the method that suits you best.
- Here are some milk frothing methods that will make foaming milk a breeze.
