Ingredients & Equipment You’ll Need
Ingredients
- 2 shots of espresso or 1/2 cup strong brewed coffee
- 1 cup of almond milk (or any other non-dairy milk of your choice)
- 2 tablespoons of caramel syrup
- Ice cubes
Equipments
- Espresso machine or Coffee maker
- Tall glass
- Long spoon
The most significant ingredient here, of course, is your choice of non-dairy milk. I prefer almond milk as it adds a subtle nutty flavor, making the drink even more delightful. Substituting sugar with caramel syrup gives it that sweet, indulgent flavor without making it sickeningly sweet.
How To Make Iced Non-Dairy Caramel Macchiato
1. Start by pouring the freshly brewed espresso or strong coffee into a tall glass. Make sure the coffee is cool before you proceed.
2. Add in the luxurious caramel syrup and give it a good stir until it combines well with the coffee.
3. Fill the glass with ice cubes to about three quarters full.
4. Pour in the non-dairy milk of your choice without stirring.
5. Grab a spoon and dig in. Enjoy the layered effect of the liquid in the glass – it���s part of the fun! Just a heads up, you’ll want to quickly mix it well before sipping.
