Homemade Salted Caramel Latte

This latte features mesmerizing salted caramel, espresso, mounds of foam, and whipped cream. Creamy, dreamy, and delicious.
Servings 1 heaping cup caramel sauce

Ingredients

Caramel:

  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 2/3 cup brown sugar packed
  • Good pinch of salt
  • 1/3 cup heavy cream

Latte:

  • 2 shots espresso
  • 2 Tbsp caramel sauce
  • 1 tsp honey or maple syrup
  • Frothed milk to fill mug
  • Whipped cream (optional)

Instructions

  • On medium low heat, mix together butter, brown sugar, and salt until smooth and combined.
  • Add heavy cream and increase to medium heat. Once caramel starts simmering and bubbling consistently, reduce heat to medium low and continue simmering for 4 min, stirring occasionally. Remove caramel from heat and pour into a jar, if desired.

Latte:

  • Stir 2 Tbsp caramel and 1 tsp honey into 2 shots fresh espresso until dissolved. Fill mug with hot, frothed milk (the amount will vary with different mugs) and top with whipped cream and a drizzle of caramel, and sip away!

Notes

Store the caramel in the refrigerator. Microwave OR heat in a saucepan over medium low heat until pourable.
