Koji Caramel Sauce Preparation
Making the Koji Caramel Sauce
In a saucepan, combine water and granulated sugar over medium heat, stirring until the sugar dissolves completely. Allow the mixture to boil without stirring until it turns a golden amber color.
Once the caramel reaches the desired color, remove from heat and carefully whisk in the butter until smooth. Add the koji and a pinch of sea salt, stirring until combined. Let it cool before using.
Coffee Preparation
Brewing the Coffee
Brew a double shot of Illy Classico coffee using your preferred method (espresso machine, French press, etc.).
Latte Assembly
Combining Ingredients
In a large mug, pour the brewed coffee over the Koji Caramel Sauce (use about 2 tablespoons of the sauce, adjust to taste).
Heat your choice of milk until steaming (or froth if desired) and pour it into the coffee mixture, stirring gently to combine.
Top with additional caramel sauce if desired, and serve hot. Alternatively, you can pour the mixture over ice for an iced version.
