    Kitchen Equipment

    Here is some kitchen equipment you will need for this homemade caramel latte. You can find all of these products on Amazon.

    Espresso Machine - This was our first espresso machine and it's great for a beginner. We've since upgraded to this one, and we love it so much!

    Tall glasses - A cute glass makes iced coffee even better, right? Here are some tall glasses that I love.

    Recipe Substitutions/Variations

    Here are some common recipe substitutions and variations for this easy recipe.

    Milk - Feel free to use any milk of your choice or milk substitute for this recipe. Some great options would be oat milk, coconut milk or almond milk. If you want to get really fancy, you can top your latte with milk foam and an extra caramel drizzle.

    Espresso - If you don’t have an espresso machine, you can just use freshly brewed regular coffee. Since you are combining it with milk, you could make it extra strong so you don’t lose that strong coffee flavor! You could also try using cold brew coffee too!

    Coffee - You could any type of coffee in place of espresso. You could make this with a leftover pot of coffee or make some French press coffee for this drink.

    Caramel Sauce - You could make your own homemade caramel sauce instead of using store bought.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Can I make this without an espresso machine?

    Yes. An espresso machine is not essential for this recipe. You can substitute regular drip coffee or cold brew coffee for the espresso and it will be just as good! 

    Can I use caramel sauce instead of caramel syrup?

    Caramel sauce would be a good substitute but it should be noted that it is a bit thicker and may not mix in as nicely as caramel syrup.  

    Can I customize the sweetness?

    Yes. Feel free to customize how much of the caramel syrup you add. Start by adding the amount the recipe has stated and then add more by the teaspoonful until you have reached the desired sweetness.

    Recipe Storage and Reheating

    This latte recipe is going to be best when made fresh and consumed right away. Here are storage and reheating instructions, if needed.
