How to Make This Latte?
As I said, the combination of this latte is espresso, milk, and caramel. After the latte is ready, you can add a little whipped cream to the cup and drizzle with caramel topping. 😋
First, pour one or two tablespoons of caramel sauce into the cup. Then add the espresso coffee to the caramel sauce. The espresso should be hot. Finally, add the milk and milk foam. If you want to know the ratio between coffee, milk, and milk foam, I have to tell you that ratios are like this: 1/2 cup milk, 1/4 cup espresso, and 1/4 cup milk foam. You can also top it with whipped cream and caramel sauce.
