I love a cozy afternoon macchiato, and lately I’ve been loving a caramel macchiato. This is one of my Starbucks copycat recipes. Here you can learn how to make a traditional macchiato. This version is closer to a latte macchiato, topped with milk foam and flavored with caramel. It’s sweet, caffeinated, and the perfect morning or afternoon snack, IMO.

relevant: Next, try a homemade Frappuccino, Pink Drink, Mocha or Paradise Drink.

Caramel Macchiato – A Beautiful Mess

ingredient

  • espresso
  • Steamed milk – dairy products or milk alternatives such as soy milk, almond milk, or oat milk.
  • Simple syrup or vanilla syrup – buy it at the store or make your own.
  • caramel sauce

i like it Torani Caramel Sauce (And other flavors like chocolate). The consistency is great for drinking or drizzling over ice cream and I love the squeeze bottle package. You can also use homemade caramel sauce instead.

How to make caramel macchiato

Follow the machine’s instructions to brew an espresso shot.

Heat the milk and foam (foam). If your espresso machine has a foam wand, you can do this at the same time. or not milk frotherOr, use it by warming it in a pan. portable bubble wand Or even fur.

Add simple syrup to the coffee mug. Then pour in the milk and foam. Then pour fresh espresso into the foam. Sprinkle caramel sauce on top.

Optional: Sometimes I drizzle caramel sauce on the top of the coffee mug as well as the sides. It’s up to you!

home espresso maker

We’ve tried many espresso makers over the years, and here are our favorites at various price points and skill levels.

  • cafe automatic espresso machine – Current computer. Since whole coffee beans are used, high-quality coffee beans can be used to produce high-quality espresso. It automatically creates espresso shots (no barista skills required) and includes a milk froth wand to heat and froth milk. We’ve been using this machine almost every day since we bought it 9 months ago and we absolutely love it! Available in three colors.
  • Stovetop Espresso – The cheapest way to make espresso at home. This is more labor intensive and also requires grinding the beans for best results. However, this is a classic method that works great if done well.
  • Breville Barista Touch – I bought it for a good friend as a wedding gift and he said he loved it. It’s an advanced machine that requires some barista skills to operate, but it’s a great home espresso maker.
  • Nespresso Vertuo – For those who want an espresso maker that uses pods, this is my favorite. Depending on which pods you use, you can make either espresso or coffee.
