Caramel Apple Latte Recipe

I've been wanting to create this delicious drink ever since the idea entered my mind 2 weeks ago. I've made it one of my goals to create a fancy drink once a month with the teas I receive (from my tea reviewing job). This latte turned out amazing and is now one of my favorite fall drinks! 

For this latte, I used tea. The tea gave my latte the spicy, caramel apple flavor. I used NecessiTeas Caramel Dipped Apple Tea. You can purchase this tea here: http://www.thenecessiteas.com

You could also use any other caramel apple (or just apple) tea you find in a grocery store or other tea company. 

Caramel Apple Latte Recipe

(1 serving) 

Without Coffee                                                                     With Coffee

1/2 Tablespoon sugar                                                           1/2 Tablespoon sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla extract                                                     1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 small spoonful of caramel                                                 1 small spoonful of caramel

1 cup milk (a mug-full)                                                        3/4 cup milk

1 1/2 teaspoon Caramel Dipped Apple Tea                     1/4 cup coffee

1) Put your tea leaves into a tea steeper and set aside

2) Put the sugar, vanilla, and caramel into a small sauce pan. Add the milk (or milk & coffee) and put on medium heat. Stir until the sugar and caramel have melted and completely mixed into the milk. Stir the milk fast to create bubbles on top (like a latte!) 

3) Put the tea into the milk mixture and let it steep for a few minutes

4) Pour latte into a mug and drizzle caramel on top

5) Enjoy!

Dulce De Leche Hot Chocolate

So....after making my dulce de leche frappuccino, I realized that I still had a bunch of dulce de leche left over. I decided to make hot chocolate with it today (for those who aren't fans of coffee) and I'll probably try to make a dessert with the rest of it next week.

Dulce De Leche Hot Chocolate


3 1/2 cups of milk (I used vanilla almond milk)
1 Tablespoon of sugar
1 Tablespoon of dulce de leche
1 Tablespoon cocoa powder
1 teaspoon vanilla
a sprinkle of salt

Stir all these ingredients together in a sauce pan on medium heat. Make sure the dulce de leche is all the way melted and mixed in (this can sometimes take a little while). If the hot chocolate is too rich or sweet, add a little more milk. Before serving, add whipped cream and spoon some dulce de leche on the very top (you may want to melt it in the microwave a little bit first). This should make enough for two mugs full.

Peanut Butter Caramel Mocha

I have really enjoyed making mochas this winter season! A while back I was making a mocha when I decided to add peanut butter. I really love peanut butter. The drink turned out to be the best mocha I've made thus far! Ever since I've added peanut butter to all of my mochas and they are delicious! If you aren't the biggest peanut butter fan, you can skip adding the peanut butter and simply add more caramel if you like. Here's the recipe! 


For one person:

about 2 cups of milk
1/2 cup of coffee (or more if you'd like!) 
2 Tablespoons of sugar 
1 Tablespoon of cocoa powder
1 Tablespoon of caramel
1 Tablespoon of peanut butter (you can kinda guess with this and add more or less) 
1/2 Tablespoon of vanilla
pinch of salt

Put the milk in a pot on medium heat. stir until hot. add the rest of the ingredients, stirring in each before adding the next. once all the ingredients are added, make sure you stir some more for a few minutes. then enjoy!
