Creamy Soy Milk Caramel Macchiato
How to Make a Delicious Soy Milk Caramel Macchiato at Home
Hello everyone! Today, I’m excited to share a recipe for a delicious soy milk caramel macchiato that rivals your favorite coffee shop creations. By using soy milk instead of dairy, we achieve an extra smooth and nutty flavor profile. This is the perfect homemade treat for a special occasion or a delightful pick-me-up on a lazy afternoon. Let’s get brewing!
Ingredients
- Ice: Sufficient quantity
- Soy milk: 190ml
- Espresso: 2 shots
- Caramel syrup: 12g (approx. 1 Tbsp)
- Caramel sauce: For drizzling
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Begin by pouring 190ml of soy milk into your milk frother or a cup. This soy milk will form the base of our delicious drink.
Step 2
Close the lid of the frother and select the ‘hot’ setting to create a rich, creamy foam. The key is to achieve a velvety texture. (Tip: For an even frothier milk, you can froth it cold first, then gently heat it. However, the hot setting alone will produce lovely foam!)
Step 3
Fill your serving cup or glass generously with ice cubes. This ensures your macchiato will be refreshingly cold.
Step 4
Drizzle 12g of caramel syrup evenly over the ice. The sweetness from the syrup will infuse beautifully into the drink.
Step 5
Carefully pour the soy milk (about 120ml), leaving the foam behind, into the cup. You can give it a gentle stir to help the syrup dissolve into the milk.
Step 6
Brew 2 shots of fresh espresso directly over the milk and syrup mixture. The robust aroma of the espresso will blend wonderfully with the soy milk for a rich flavor.
Step 7
Now, generously spoon the frothed soy milk foam over the espresso. This creates a beautiful layered effect and adds a creamy texture to the top of your macchiato.
Step 8
Gently smooth the surface of the milk foam using a spoon or spatula. This will give you a nice, flat canvas for decorating with caramel sauce.
Step 9
Finally, take your caramel sauce and drizzle it artfully in a zigzag pattern over the foam. This step not only adds extra flavor but also makes your macchiato look professionally crafted.
Step 10
Voila! Your homemade Soy Milk Caramel Macchiato is ready! Enjoy your delightful, cafe-quality beverage right in the comfort of your own home. Cheers to a sweet moment!
