Ingredients
Scale

- Ice cubes
Instructions
- Brew the espresso: Make 1-2 shots of espresso (about 2 ounces or 60 ml) and let it cool slightly.
- Prepare the milk: Froth 3/4 cup (180 ml) of milk until creamy. Use barista blend non-dairy milk if preferred.
- Layer the caramel sauce: Drizzle 1-2 tablespoons (15-30 ml) of caramel sauce into the bottom of your glass and swirl it around.
- Add ice: Fill the glass with ice cubes, leaving space for the espresso and milk.
- Pour the espresso: Slowly pour the cooled espresso over the ice and caramel sauce.
- Add the milk: Gently pour the frothed milk over the espresso to create a creamy layer.
- Top with whipped cream: Add a generous dollop of whipped cream on top.
- Finish with caramelized sugar: Sprinkle crushed caramel candies or torch sugar for the brulée crunch.
Notes
Chill your espresso slightly before assembling to prevent the ice from melting too quickly. Layer the ingredients thoughtfully for a visually appealing drink. Taste-test your caramel sauce to ensure it’s rich and buttery.
