These are approximations for the real thing.
Caramel Macchiato
The average coffee mug is probably equivalent to a Tall(12 oz./355ml). This is not precise Starbucks standards, but it's one shot of espresso, about .75 oz. syrup (.25 oz. per 4 oz. liquid capacity)
Best if Starbucks Brand of Coffee Beans Are Used And Ground As Needed
Ingredients:
- Milk
- Espresso
- Vanilla Syrup
- Your favorite caramel sauce
In a regular-sized coffee mug, add vanilla syrup and steamed milk. Top with milk foam and add freshly brewed espresso through the foam. Drizzle with caramel sauce.
Iced Caramel Macchiato
Same ingredients, plus some small ice cubes and (optional) whipped cream.
In a pint glass or iced tea glass (assuming 16 oz.), add vanilla syrup and fill about 3/5 of the way with cold milk. Add ice almost to the top and pour espresso (2 shots would be typical) over the top. If you've done it right, the espresso will mix in only about halfway down without stirring. If adding whipped cream, add it here. Drizzle the top with caramel and enjoy.

It's better with excellent machinery. We have a cappicuno/expresso machine, but grinding the beans makes a HUGE difference.
