Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons vanilla syrup (recipe follows)
- 1/2 cup fresh espresso
- 1 cup milk, steamed and frothy with foam
- 3-4 tablespoons caramel sauce (I used the same jarred caramel sauce that is sold as an ice cream topping)
- For the vanilla syrup:
- 2 cups water
- 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Directions
-
To make the vanilla syrup, combine sugar and water in a sauce pan. Bring to boil over high heat and boil for 5 minutes. Let cool and add vanilla extract. Stir well and keep in a sealed container, refrigerated.
-
To make coffee, either use an espresso machine to make coffee and steam milk, or heat milk until hot, but not boiling, on stove-top and transfer to a blender. Blend until frothy. For espresso, if you don’t have a machine, just make double strength coffee.
-
Add vanilla syrup, espresso or strong coffee, and hot milk to mug. Add caramel sauce and serve.
