  • Author: SOFIA
  • Total Time: 10 minutes
  • Yield: 1 serving 1x

Description

A warm, cozy fall drink combining apple cider, strong coffee, and salted caramel with a touch of cinnamon and vanilla. Easy to make with simple ingredients for a café-worthy treat at home.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup (240 ml) fresh, unfiltered apple cider
  • 1/2 cup (120 ml) strong brewed coffee or espresso
  • 1/2 cup (120 ml) milk or milk alternative (whole milk, oat milk, or almond milk)
  • 2 tablespoons caramel sauce (homemade or store-bought)
  • Pinch of sea salt (preferably flaky)
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
  • Optional toppings: whipped cream, extra caramel drizzle, cinnamon stick

Instructions

  1. Brew a strong cup of coffee or espresso (about 1/2 cup). Set aside.
  2. Pour 1 cup of apple cider into a small saucepan and warm over medium heat until steaming but not boiling (about 3 minutes).
  3. Stir in 2 tablespoons of caramel sauce and a pinch of sea salt until fully combined and smooth.
  4. Add 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract; stir to combine.
  5. Warm 1/2 cup of milk or milk alternative on the stove or in the microwave until hot but not boiling. Froth if desired using a frother, whisk, or by shaking in a jar.
  6. Pour the brewed coffee into a mug, add the warm salted caramel apple cider mixture, and stir gently.
  7. Top with the frothed milk, spooning foam on top.
  8. Garnish with whipped cream, extra caramel drizzle, and a sprinkle of cinnamon or flaky sea salt if desired. Serve immediately.

Notes

Do not boil the apple cider to preserve fresh flavor. Warm caramel slightly if thick before mixing. Use real vanilla extract for best flavor. Froth milk by whisking or shaking if no frother is available. Pre-warm your mug to keep the drink warmer longer. Store cider-caramel mixture separately in fridge up to 3 days; add milk and coffee fresh before serving.
