Am I the only one feeling like today is just one of those days where you want to say, “TGIF and where’s the coffee???”
Yeah, coffee is a good thing and I refuse to back down on this position. Even if I do have a tendency to drink too much sometimes, which is something I’ve told you is not a very good idea for me. But you know, YOLO, and….well….coffee. Enough said.
So this is a great recipe for hot weather months but it’s still every bit as delicious during the colder ones. It’s actually a great thing to brighten up a dreary morning or have as an afternoon pick-me-up on a hard day. Come on, you deserve something delicious to drink!
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons caramel sauce, plus more for topping (optional) [You can use the caramel in this recipe if you want to make it yourself.)
- 1 ounce white chocolate
- 3/4 cup whole milk
- 2 shots espresso (or 1/4 cup strongly brewed coffee)
- handful of ice
- sweetened whipped cream for topping, (optional)
Instructions
- Pour 1/4 cup of the milk into a glass measuring cup and warm in the microwave for about 30 seconds until warm. Add the white chocolate and stir until completely melted (if it’s not warm enough heat it a little longer.)
- Spoon the caramel sauce into a tall glass cup and pour in the remaining 1/2 cup milk into the glass, then the ice, espresso, and the white chocolate/milk mix. Stir until blended and top with whipped cream, and an extra drizzle of caramel if desired
