Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 shots espresso
- 1 cup whole milk
- 2 tablespoons vanilla syrup
- 1 tablespoon caramel sauce
- 0.5 teaspoon cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 2 tablespoons whipped cream
Instructions
Brew 2 shots of espresso using an espresso machine or a stovetop moka pot. Set them aside.
In a small saucepan, heat the whole milk over medium-low heat, stirring frequently to prevent scorching. Remove from heat just before it begins to simmer.
If you have a milk frother, froth the warm milk until it's airy and creamy. If you don’t have a frother, whisk the milk vigorously by hand or shake it in a heat-safe jar with the lid tightly secured until frothy.
In your favorite coffee mug, combine the vanilla syrup, caramel sauce, and sugar. Stir until the sugars are dissolved.
Pour the freshly brewed espresso into the mug and stir well to combine with the syrup mixture.
Slowly add the frothed milk into the mug, holding back a spoonful of foam to place on top once poured.
Gently place the reserved foam on the drink's surface and finish with a dollop of whipped cream.
Sprinkle the cocoa powder over the whipped cream for garnish and serve immediately. Enjoy your Starlight Caffé!
