Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Begin by pouring 2 tablespoons of vanilla syrup into a tall glass. This syrup will serve as the sweet foundation for your Iced Caramel Macchiato, so let it settle at the bottom.
  2. Next, fill the glass halfway with ice cubes, ensuring there’s plenty to keep your drink refreshingly cold.
  3. Slowly pour ¾ cup of your choice of milk over the ice. Aim for a gentle pour to form layers.
  4. Brew 2 ounces of strong espresso using your espresso machine or moka pot. Let it cool slightly.
  5. Gently pour the espresso over the milk layer at an angle, preserving the distinct layered appearance.
  6. Drizzle approximately 1 tablespoon of rich caramel sauce over the top of your drink to complete your masterpiece.
  7. If you prefer a cohesive flavor, stir gently to combine the layers or serve immediately.
