Salted caramel latte directions
- 1
In a small saucepan, combine granulated sugar and water over medium heat. Do not stir; swirl the pan gently as the sugar melts to avoid crystallization.
- 2
Continue cooking until the sugar turns a deep amber color.

Remove from heat and carefully whisk in the heavy cream until smooth. Return to low heat if needed and whisk in the sea salt. Set aside to cool slightly.
- 4
Brew the espresso shots and set aside.
- 5
Heat the milk in a small saucepan or using a milk steamer until it reaches about 65°C (149°F). If using vanilla extract, add it to the milk at this stage.
- 6
In a warm mug, add 1 tablespoon of salted caramel sauce to the bottom.
- 7
Pour the hot espresso over the caramel, then gradually add the steamed milk, holding back the foam with a spoon. Spoon the foam on top.
- 8
Drizzle additional salted caramel sauce over the latte and sprinkle a small pinch of sea salt on top for finish.
