Why You’ll Love This Salted Caramel Latte:

Creamy and Smooth: The whipped heavy cream mixed with caramel adds a silky texture that enhances the richness of the drink.
Easy to Make: You don’t need fancy equipment to whip up this delightful latte – just a few basic ingredients and minimal time!
Versatile: Enjoy this latte hot or cold, and easily adjust the sweetness or strength to suit your taste.

Tips for Making the Perfect Salted Caramel Latte at Home:

Use Freshly Brewed Espresso: For the best flavour, brew your espresso fresh. If you don’t have an espresso machine, strong brewed coffee will also work in a pinch.
Adjust the Sweetness: If you prefer a sweeter drink, you can add an extra teaspoon of caramel sauce to the coffee before mixing. On the other hand, you can reduce the caramel if you want a less sweet drink.
Whip the Cream Properly: For the perfect foamy topping, whip the heavy cream and caramel until frothy. Overwhipping can make the cream too thick, so keep an eye on it!
Iced or Hot? This recipe is perfect for an iced latte, but you can also enjoy it hot by warming the milk and skipping the ice.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Can I use store-bought caramel sauce?

Absolutely! You can use any salted caramel sauce you like, whether store-bought or homemade. Just make sure it’s a good quality sauce to get the rich, caramel flavor. I’m using this one kindly gifted to me by the Irish Brand Follain.

Can I make this drink dairy-free?

Yes! To make this latte dairy-free, substitute the milk and heavy cream with plant-based alternatives such as almond milk, oat milk, or coconut cream. Make sure your salted caramel sauce is also dairy-free if needed.

What type of coffee should I use?

Espresso is ideal for this recipe, but if you don’t have an espresso machine, you can use strong brewed coffee. Aim for a bold, rich coffee to complement the sweetness of the caramel.

How can I make it less sweet?

If you find the drink too sweet, simply reduce the amount of salted caramel sauce. You can also skip the caramel drizzle on top to cut back on the sweetness.
