Description
A copycat iced caramel macchiato with oat milk is a cold espresso-based drink designed to replicate the signature flavor profile of popular coffee chain offerings. It features a sweet vanilla-flavored oat milk base topped with ice, strong espresso shots, and a thick crisscross pattern of caramel sauce over the top.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 shots espresso, cooled
- ¾ cup barista-style oat milk, chilled
- 1–2 tbsp vanilla syrup
- 1–2 tbsp caramel sauce, plus extra for drizzling
- 1 cup ice
- Optional: 1 tsp simple syrup if you prefer it sweeter
Instructions
- Add vanilla: Pour the vanilla syrup into a tall glass.
- Add oat milk: Pour in the chilled oat milk and stir briefly.
- Fill with ice: Add ice almost to the top of the glass.
- Add espresso: Slowly pour the cooled espresso over the ice and oat milk. This creates the characteristic layered look.
- Caramel drizzle: Drizzle caramel sauce generously over the top.
- Serve: Give it a gentle stir before drinking.
Notes
For the best café-style flavor, use chilled barista-style oat milk, freshly brewed espresso, and plenty of ice. Adjust the vanilla syrup and caramel drizzle to your preferred level of sweetness.
