Caramel Brulee Latte (Starbucks Copycat Recipe)
This caramel brulee latte recipe is a delicious copycat of the original Starbucks drink. Skip the drive through and save your money with this holiday favorite!
Everyone knows that I am a Starbucks addict; I love the coffee, the baristas, the swag and the entire coffee experience. But when I can’t make it to my favorite cafe, creating Starbucks copycat recipes at home is the next best thing!

My good friend Rachael has been a barista at Starbucks for years and is great about giving me tips to make the perfect drink! Any Starbucks copycat recipe should always start with this Starbucks ground coffee available on Amazon.
What is a Starbucks Caramel Brulee made with?
The main ingredients in this latte recipe are espresso, milk, caramel sauce and toffee bits. You can find everything you need at the grocery store at a fraction of the cost of daily drive through.
If you don’t have an espresso maker, that’s okay! Simply use Starbucks dark roast to make a rich, strong brewed coffee instead.

How to make steamed milk at home:
One of my favorite parts of any latte, is the frothy milk. It’s easy to make steamed milk at home by simply heating the milk in the microwave and then whipping it with a milk frother or immersion blender.
I love, love, love my Keurig single serve coffee maker that comes with a built in frother. I’ve also used one of these all in one, milk frother and steamers which are a great option to have at home if you are making a lot of lattes.
How to make a Caramel Brulee Latte:
Ingredients:
- Brewed strong coffee – I love this ground Espresso from Starbucks.
- Milk, frothed – you can use half and half or cream too.
- Caramel syrup – this Smucker’s brand is my favorite but you can also find Torani and Ghirardelli syrups on Amazon.
- Dairyland whipped cream, prepared – homemade whipped cream could be used as well.
- Toffee bits – Heath or Skor bits are the best!
Directions:
1. Pour the coffee into a 16 oz mug.
This gorgeous hand crafted mug is from a local potter in Vernon, you can find her at Wild Tree Studio.
2. Add 2 tablespoons of caramel syrup and stir.
3. Add steamed milk to the mug.
4. Top with a generous amount of whipped cream.
5. Sprinkle with toffee bits and drizzle with caramel syrup.
This caramel brulee latte would be amazing served on a lazy Sunday morning with this delicious french casserole or cinnamon bun casserole. Together they would make a lovely Christmas breakfast or brunch!
Or add a splash of homemade baileys or rum to make a hot toddy, the perfect night cap for those chilly winter evenings.
I could honestly have this Starbucks copycat latte everyday! Especially if I were to make it sugar free with a bit of sugar free syrup and toffee.
What to serve with this latte:
- This keto cranberry bliss bar is my absolute favorite treat to pair with a good latte!
- We also love these easy, three ingredient peanut butter cookies.
- Or try these Candy Cane Brownie Blossom Cookies for a truly festive treat!
