A delicious homemade Cinnamon Dolce Latte featuring a sweet and spicy cinnamon syrup combined with rich espresso and creamy steamed milk, topped with frothy foam and optional whipped cream for a cozy café-style treat.

Ingredients

Cinnamon Dolce Syrup

  • 1 cup Water
  • 1 cup Brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons Ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
  • 1 pinch Salt

Latte

  • 2 shots Espresso (or strong brewed coffee)
  • 1 cup Milk (whole or plant-based)
  • 3 tablespoons Cinnamon dolce syrup
  • 2 tablespoons Whipped cream (optional)
  • 1 stick Cinnamon (optional garnish)

Instructions

  1. Make the Cinnamon Dolce Syrup: In a saucepan, combine 1 cup water, 1 cup brown sugar, and 2 tablespoons ground cinnamon. Simmer over medium heat for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally until the sugar dissolves and the mixture is fragrant.
  2. Add Vanilla and Salt: Remove the saucepan from heat, stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract and a pinch of salt. Allow the syrup to cool completely, then strain it through a fine mesh sieve to remove cinnamon particles for a smooth syrup.
  3. Brew Espresso: Prepare 2 shots of espresso using your espresso machine. If you don’t have espresso, substitute with 2 shots of strong brewed coffee.
  4. Steam or Froth Milk: Heat and steam 1 cup of milk until it is hot and has a creamy froth on top. You can use a steamer, frother, or gently warm and whisk the milk until foamy.
  5. Combine Syrup and Espresso: Pour 3 tablespoons of the cooled cinnamon dolce syrup into a mug, then add the espresso shot(s). Stir well to combine the flavors.
  6. Add Milk and Foam: Slowly pour the steamed milk into the mug, holding back the foam with a spoon. Then, spoon the remaining milk foam on top of the latte.
  7. Garnish and Serve: Optionally, top your latte with 2 tablespoons of whipped cream and garnish with a cinnamon stick for a festive look and extra aroma.

Notes

  • The cinnamon syrup can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
  • For a dairy-free version, substitute milk with almond, oat, or soy milk.
  • Adjust the amount of cinnamon dolce syrup to your preferred sweetness level.
  • If you don’t have an espresso machine, use very strong brewed coffee to approximate the intensity.
  • Whipped cream topping is optional but adds extra creaminess and a café feel.
