Instructions

  1. 1

    Make the Bourbon Caramel

    In a saucepan, combine the granulated sugar with 1/4 cup of water over medium heat. Stir until the sugar dissolves, then stop stirring and allow it to simmer until it turns a deep amber color. Remove from heat and carefully whisk in the heavy cream, bourbon, and a pinch of sea salt. Let it cool slightly.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Espresso

    Brew a cup of espresso using your preferred method. You can use an espresso machine or a stovetop Moka pot.

  3. 3

    Combine Milk and Espresso

    In a separate pot, heat the milk over medium heat until steaming but not boiling. Froth the milk if desired.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Drink

    In a serving glass, combine the brewed espresso with the frothed milk. Drizzle the bourbon caramel over the top and stir gently to combine.

  5. 5

    Garnish and Serve

    Optional: Top with whipped cream and an additional drizzle of bourbon caramel before serving.
