Salted Caramel Latte with Steamed Milk

teas.co.uk · 8 min · Serves 1

You'll need

• 1 Costa Salted Caramel Latte sachet (17g)
• 100ml freshly drawn water, brought to a rolling boil, then cooled to about 90C (check with a thermometer)
• 150ml whole milk
• 1 teaspoon of caramel sauce, for the drizzle
• A tiny extra pinch of fine sea salt, for the foam top
• 1 piece of crystallised caramel fudge (about 10g), for the saucer

Method

1. Pre warm the caramel latte mug with hot water.
2. Empty the sachet into the mug, add 100ml of hot water at around 90C and whisk for thirty seconds into a strong, glossy base.
3. Warm the milk in a small pan until it just steams, then froth it into a thick foam with a handheld frother.
4. Pour the milk over the back of a spoon so it settles on top of the coffee.
5. Drizzle caramel over the foam and finish with a small pinch of sea salt.
6. Add the salt on top rather than in the brew; stirred through it just tastes flatly salty instead of salted caramel.
