What Does this Taste Like?

Honestly, I would love to say this tastes like coffee heaven in a cup. This fragrant latte features warm tones of brown sugar and buttery sweet toffee bursts with notes that are both rich, yet light. The brewed espresso brings out its best attributes while velvety steamed milk warms your palate before being topped off by whipped cream covered in crunchy pecans.

Torani Sugar Free Toffee Nut Syrup

If you have not tried Torani Sugar Free Toffee Nut Syrup, you’re missing out! This 12.7 ounce bottle of liquid gold tastes very close (if not better) to the top coffee chain flavoring. Best of all, despite being sugar-free, it is sweet tasting and does not have a funky aftertaste. It sweetens coffee, milk beverages, lattes, ice cream, and more with the perfect flavor every time. You can find it on the official Torani site, or buy it at stores like Walmart.

How to Make this Latte

Making this sugar-free Toffee Nut Latte is pretty easy, but you will need some items. You’ll need an expresso cup, caffeine mug, espresso machine, and milk steamer. We are fortunate enough to have all of these items on-hand since we are coffee enthusiasts. However, you might not have a milk steamer on hand so I’ll share below how to steam milk at home without one.

• Brew the Espresso: Brew 2 shots of espresso using your espresso maker. If your machine only pulls a single shot at a time, pull one shot, and then repeat the process for the second.
• Add the Syrup: Pour 1 ounce of Torani Sugar-Free Toffee Syrup directly into your favorite coffee mug.
• Combine: Pour your freshly brewed espresso shots into the mug with the syrup, stirring well until fully combined and dissolved.
• Steam the Milk: Steam 6 ounces of your favorite milk until hot and velvety.
• Pour: Gently pour the steamed milk into your espresso and syrup mixture, holding back the foam with a spoon, then spoon the remaining microfoam right on top.
• Add Whipped Cream: Crown your latte with a generous dollop of whipped cream.
• Garnish: Finish it off with a sprinkle of chopped pecans (candied or plain) for that signature toffee-nut crunch!

Steaming Milk at Home

Don’t have a milk steamer at home? That is okay because not everyone can be a barista–haha! There is a way to make steamed milk using simple home gadgets like your microwave!

1. Fill a microwave-safe container (like an insulated mug) with milk type of choice.
2. Heat the milk in 20 – 30 seconds intervals.
3. Measure the milk temperature. A food-grade thermometer should read 150°F; this ensures that it will be heated but not too quickly so as to cause foaming or scalding skin when poured directly into freshly brewed coffee.
4. Pour into the latte or coffee.
