The Iced Caramel Macchiato is one of Starbucks most popular drinks.

It’s no surprise why, the caramel macchiato is a delicious, creamy coffee drink with caramel and vanilla flavors.

How To Make Starbucks Iced Caramel Macchiato

Starbucks serves its Ice Caramel Macchiato drinks in a layered fashion. This is pretty fun and easy to do…and think of all those likes you’ll get on the gram!

Start by putting a little vanilla syrup in the bottom of your cup, then add ice so that the cup is about 1/2 full. Slowly pour the milk over the ice, then add more ice so that your cup is almost full (if I’m putting on a lid I will leave about 1″ of space so it doesn’t overflow).

Now slowly pour 2 shots of espresso over the ice. Take the caramel sauce and drizzle it all over the top.

The layers will start to meld together quickly, so snap a pic then swirl it together to mix and enjoy!

Ingredients

1 Tablespoon Vanilla Syrup

1/2 Cup Ice Cubes (approximately), divided

Instructions

Add vanilla syrup to the bottom of a 16 oz cup.

Add ice cubes until the glass is about half-full. Slowly pour the milk over the ice cubes.

Add more ice until it almost reaches the top of the cup (if using a lid I would leave at least 1″ of space so it doesn’t overflow). Slowly pour espresso over the top. Drizzle the caramel evenly over the top layer.

Swirl drink to combine ingredients before drinking. Enjoy!

    Hi, I was wondering if there is an alternative to using espresso? Could I use cold coffee and if so, would it be the same amount as the espresso?

      Hey, Christina! You’ll want to use the same amount, but if you use coffee I would brew it really strong. Maybe double the strength that you usually would. You could also use cold brew concentrate if you have any of that.

    Can I ask what is the best espresso I should use? Light, Medium or Dark? I just bought a Nespresso machine and got the light one- not to sure that’s strong enough for flavor…

    Thank you!

      Hi Kayla, I’m not very familiar with Nespresso, but I’m guessing the dark roast would be ideal. It’s my understanding that Starbucks uses a medium or dark roast bean for their espresso based drinks. Hope that helps!

    Hi, does the espresso need to cool off or go right in?
