Ingredients

  • 15 ml vanilla syrup
  • ~200 ml steamed milk
  • 2 shots espresso
  • Caramel sauce

Method

  1. Stir the vanilla syrup into the bottom of a tall glass.
  2. Add the steamed milk and a layer of foam.
  3. Pour the espresso through the foam so it “marks” the milk.
  4. Finish with a crosshatch of caramel sauce on top.
Barista tip

Pouring the shots last gives the signature espresso “stain” on the foam.
