How to Make Caramel Macchiato Vegan Style
- **Make the Vanilla Syrup:** In a small saucepan, combine 1 cup granulated sugar and ½ cup water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring until sugar dissolves.
- **Simmer the Syrup:** Reduce heat to low and simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened. Remove from heat and let cool completely.
- **Infuse with Vanilla:** Stir in 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract. Transfer to an airtight container and refrigerate until ready to use.
- **Prepare the Coffee:** Brew 2 shots of espresso (or 4 ounces of strong brewed coffee).
- **Heat the Almond Milk:** In a small saucepan, gently heat 1 cup almond milk over medium-low heat until steaming (do not boil).
- **Froth the Milk:** Pour the heated almond milk into a blender and blend on high speed for 15-20 seconds until frothy. Alternatively, use a milk frother.
- **Assemble the Macchiato:** Add 1 tablespoon of vanilla syrup to the bottom of a tall glass. Layer with the steamed almond milk, leaving about ½ inch of space at the top.
- **Add Espresso & Caramel:** Carefully pour the espresso shots over the milk. Drizzle with caramel sauce, creating a crosshatch pattern (7 lines one way, 7 the other, and 2 circles around the rim). Enjoy immediately!
