Description
This 3-Ingredient Iced Caramel Macchiato is a quick and refreshing coffeehouse-style drink made with cold milk, chilled espresso or cold brew, and rich caramel sauce. Ready in just 5 minutes, it’s perfect for breakfast, an afternoon pick-me-up, or whenever you’re craving a creamy iced coffee.
Ingredients
1 cup cold milk (whole milk, 2%, oat milk, or almond milk)
½ cup strong brewed espresso or cold brew coffee, chilled
2 tablespoons caramel sauce, plus extra for drizzling
Ice cubes
Instructions
1. Drizzle caramel sauce around the inside of a tall serving glass.
2. Fill the glass about three-quarters full with ice cubes.
3. Pour the cold milk over the ice.
4. Slowly pour the chilled espresso or cold brew over the milk to create beautiful layers.
5. Drizzle additional caramel sauce over the top.
6. Serve immediately, stirring before drinking if you prefer a sweeter blended flavor.
Notes
For the best layered effect, make sure the coffee is completely chilled before pouring.
Use oat milk for an extra creamy dairy-free version.
Adjust the caramel sauce to make the drink sweeter or less sweet.
Large ice cubes melt more slowly and keep the drink flavorful longer.
