Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup cold brew concentrate
  • ½ cup whole milk
  • 3 tbsp caramel sauce
  • 1 tbsp simple syrup
  • 1 cup ice
  • 2 tbsp heavy cream or half-and-half
  • 1 tsp caramel sauce (for glass and topping)

Method
 

  1. Drizzle 1 tsp caramel sauce around the inside of a tall 16 oz glass, then add 1 cup of ice.
  2. In a small pitcher, stir together the 1 cup cold brew concentrate, 3 tbsp caramel sauce, and 1 tbsp simple syrup for 20 to 30 seconds until fully dissolved.
  3. Pour the coffee mixture over the ice, then add the ½ cup whole milk by pouring it down the side of the tilted glass.
  4. Float the 2 tbsp heavy cream over the back of a spoon on top, drizzle with extra caramel sauce, and serve immediately with a straw.

Notes

You can mix the coffee base up to 4 days ahead and keep it in a sealed jar in the fridge. If your caramel sauce is cold and stiff, give it 10 seconds in the microwave before stirring it in. The simple syrup is optional — taste the coffee base before pouring and decide if you need it.
