Ingredients
Vanilla Simple Syrup
- 1 cup water
- ½ cup white sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Caramel Brulee Candy
- ½ cup sugar
Caramel Brulee Coffee
- 1-2 tablespoon caramel sauce plus extra for drizzling
- 1 shot espresso
- 1 tablespoon vanilla simple syrup
- ½ cup milk heated and frothed
- whipped cream for topping
- 1 teaspoon caramel Brulee candied bits
Instructions
Make the Vanilla Simple Syrup
- Heat water and white sugar in a small saucepan over medium heat until the sugar is dissolved. Remove from heat and whisk in vanilla extract.
Make the Caramel Brulee topping
- Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. Add white sugar to a small saucepan. Cook sugar in a small saucepan over low-medium heat for 1-2 minutes until the sugar melts and turns golden brown, stirring constantly to prevent it from burning.
- Pour the caramel evenly onto the baking sheet, smoothing it out with the back of a spoon the best you can so that it is in a thin layer. Let cool for 5 minutes. When hardened, carefully crush the caramel into small pieces.
Assemble The Caramel Brulee Latte
- Combine caramel sauce in the bottom of a mug with espresso and vanilla simple syrup.
- Pour the frothed milk on top of the espresso, keeping the foam on top.
- Top with whipped cream, a light caramel drizzle, and a sprinkle of candied Brulee topping. Serve immediately and enjoy!
Notes
- Heat and froth the milk while you are making the espresso. You want to add everything while it is hot.
- Pour the steamed milk in slowly so the foam stays on top.
- Adjust the sweetness by adding more or less vanilla simple syrup.
