Caramel Macchiato

My Hubby is on a Coffeehouse style coffee kick these days either it's hot or cold coffee. 

I'm not a coffee drinker but I love the smell and the taste of specialitycoffee.

So, here comes caramel macchiato.

Preparation Time: 5 minutes 

Heating and Mixing time: 10 minutes 

Serves : 1

Ingredients:

Medium to dark roast coffee grinds: 1 tablespoon 

Water : 5 oz

Milk : 1/2 cup

Vanilla syrup: 4 tablespoons 

Sugar : 1 teaspoon 

Caramel sauce : for topping 

Method:

Brew the coffee.

Take the milk in a large cup or a bowl and microwave it on high 1 to 11/2 minutes until hot but the milk should not be boiling.

Take a milk frother or hand mixer and beat it increasing the speed as milk thickens for about 2 minutes. Steamed milk stays on the bottom and foam rises to the top.

Take the brewed coffee, mix in vanilla syrup and sugar. Microwave for 20 -30 seconds. Add the steamed milk and mix well.

Take the foam and top it off in the cup.

Add the caramel sauce on top of the foam and serve immediately.
