Ingredients
  

Cinnamon Dolce Syrup
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
Latte
  • 1/2 cup strong brewed espresso
  • 1.5 cups milk steamed
  • whipped cream for topping

Equipment

  • Small saucepan
  • Espresso maker

Method
 

  1. Simmer the water, brown sugar, and cinnamon for 3-4 minutes until slightly syrupy, then cool.
  2. Divide 2-3 tablespoons of the syrup between two mugs and add the espresso.
  3. Pour in the steamed milk and stir.
  4. Top with whipped cream and a sprinkle of cinnamon. Serve hot.

Notes

The cinnamon dolce syrup keeps for two weeks, so make a batch and pull it out whenever a craving hits. Real cinnamon sticks give the smoothest flavor.
