Steps To Make Sugar Cookie Latte

1. Caramelize Sugar

In a saucepan, add one cup of water along with one cup of white sugar and half a cup of brown sugar. Put it on low heat and stir it until it becomes thick and caramelized. Make sure to do the occasional string to get perfect consistency.

2. Add Extract

Into the caramel syrup, add 1 ounce of vanilla extract and almond extract and stir well. Bring it off from the heat.

3. Mix White Chocolate Chip

Add half a cup of white chocolate chip into the syrup and stir until it is completely melted. This is the base mixture for our sugar cookie latte. 

4. Add The Sugar Syrup

Once you have prepared the sugar syrup, start making your sugar cookie latte by pouring two tablespoons of the syrup into the bottom of the glass. If you like more sweetness, add more of it.

5. Add Espresso Shots

Into a large glass, add one ounce of an espresso shot. If you are a fan of the strong coffee taste, then you can add up to two shots.

6. Pour Milk

Fill the rest of the glass with chilled milk or hot milk. Sugar Cookie Latte can be taken as both cold or hot drinks. Almond milk adds a nutty flavor to the drink. However, you can add any milk of your choice.

If you are planning to serve it hot, make sure to boil the milk and make it as frothy as possible before adding it to the mixture.

7. Serve The Latte

Once your drink is ready to serve, you can top it off with some yummy whipped cream or chocolate sprinkles.
