Caramel Macchiato...just Like Starbucks
By: chef FIFI
Dec 2, 2008
I love caramel macchiato's from Starbucks, but at $4.00 a pop, you can have one everyday of the week for that price by making them at home.
SERVES 2
Ingredients
- 6 ounces coffee (brewed)
- 6 ounces milk (steamed)
- 1-2 teaspoon sugar or Splenda sugar substitute (to taste)
- 3 teaspoons caramel syrup
- 1/2 teaspoon artificial vanilla flavoring
- reddi whipped cream
- caramel syrup, drizzled
Directions
1
To make a strong coffee, you can brew a ratio of 3 heaping tbsp of coffee to 6 cups water.2
Add vanillin to the coffee grinds before making the coffee, that way it will infuse while brewing.3
Once coffee is done brewing, place milk in a large cup and microwave until hot.4
In a tall glass combine the coffee, milk, and caramel syrup and stir well.5
Add sugar in small increments until desired sweetness is acheived, dont forget that the caramel will sweeten this beverage as well.6
Top with whipped cream and drizzle caramel.7
Enjoy!

My daughter wanted to try this since she got "addicted" to them while at college. We made it with French Roast coffee, but used a rounded tablespoon of ground coffee for every 6 oz. cup. We used Hershey's caramel syrup to mix into the coffee/milk mixture and used Smucker's caramel to drizzle on top as it's thicker. We used a little extra caramel syrup in the coffee instead of adding sugar for sweetness. We all really enjoyed this, even my younger teenage daughters, but personally I would like the coffee taste to come through a little more, so I would make the coffee even stronger next time. Thanks for posting. I know we'll be making this frequently and plan on also trying it iced.

I just found this posted today, and since I was trying to find something for breakfast, I tried it.. Yummy! I had some coffee cream called "Dulce de leche", I had just bought, so I used it instead of milk. Yum, yum! I will leave out the extra sugar next time tho, as it made it a little sweet, with the 'dulce de leche'.
