    Expert Tips and Tricks

    Here are some expert tips to make this delicious drink: 

    Layer it - To create an aesthetically pleasing layered effect, pour the espresso shot and toffee syrup into your cup first. Gently stir or swirl the cup to combine the syrup and espresso. Then, pour the frothed milk slowly over the back of a spoon to float on top of the espresso-syrup mixture.

    Make it a cocktail - Add a shot of your favorite liqueur to the mix for a coffee drink with a kick. Options like Irish cream, hazelnut liqueur, or coffee liqueur can enhance the flavors and create a delicious cocktail-inspired twist.

    Toppings - If you want to take this to the next level, you can top with toffee bits or toffee nut sprinkles for extra toffee nut flavor!

    Kitchen Equipment

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

    Coffee mug - A great coffee mug makes all the difference. I like these and think they would be perfect for this recipe.

    Espresso Maker - This is the espresso maker that we have and we love it! Another great option is a moka pot!

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

    Toffee Nut Syrup - I found my syrup on Amazon. This is the brand I used.

    Recipe Substitutions/Variations

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

    Milk - If you prefer or require non-dairy options, you can substitute cow's milk with plant-based alternatives like almond milk, oat milk, coconut milk, or soy milk. Each type of milk will bring its own distinct flavor and texture, so feel free to choose the one that complements the toffee and nut combination best.

    Garnish - Sprinkle a dash of cocoa powder, cinnamon, a pinch of sea salt or crushed nuts on top. A drizzle of caramel syrup or chocolate sauce can add an extra touch of indulgence.

    Coffee - For best results, we recommend espresso, but if you don't have an espresso maker, you can use a cup of coffee with a high quality coffee bean.

    Syrup - If you're unable to find toffee nut syrup, you can use hazelnut syrup or sweet caramel syrup to add the sweet rich flavor to the drink. You could also opt for toffee nut creamer or a flavor of toffee nut coffee to add to the flavor.

    What To Serve With

    Here are some recipes to serve alongside this coffee treat:

    Sausage and Broccoli Frittata - Make this sausage and broccoli frittata for a quick brunch, for feeding a crowd, or for a game day spread.

    Chocolate Peanut Butter Protein Overnight Oats - Packed with protein and nutrition, these overnight oats couldn't be easier to make. I love prepping a few at a time to have breakfasts covered.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Can I make a latte 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 adjust the sweetness?

    Yes. Feel free to customize how much of the toffee nut 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.

    What are some alternatives to the toffee nut syrup?

    You can try using caramel syrup as a replacement. It will still provide a similar sweet and caramelized flavor profile to your latte. You might even consider using macadamia, pecan, or even a combination of different nut extracts or syrups to add a unique twist to your latte.

    Recipe Storage and Reheating

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

    Refrigerator Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight jar and consume within 1-2 days.
