Enjoy a decadent and comforting S'mores Latte featuring rich espresso combined with toasted marshmallow and chocolate syrups, steamed milk, and topped with perfectly toasted marshmallows for a nostalgic campfire flavor in a cozy cup.

Ingredients

For the Syrups

  • 1 tablespoon toasted marshmallow syrup (or simple syrup infused with toasted marshmallows)
  • 1/2 tablespoon chocolate syrup (store-bought or homemade)

For the Coffee Base

  • 1/4 cup hot espresso (or strong brewed coffee; decaf or flavored coffee optional)

For the Milk

  • 3/4 cup steamed milk (dairy or non-dairy such as oat or almond milk)

For the Garnish

  • Toasted marshmallows to taste (optional but highly recommended)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Syrups: Add 1 tablespoon of toasted marshmallow syrup and 1/2 tablespoon of chocolate syrup to the bottom of a heat-resistant glass or mug, ensuring the base of your latte has a rich and sweet foundation.
  2. Brew the Espresso: Brew a hot espresso or a strong cup of coffee, approximately 1/4 cup in volume. Carefully pour the espresso over the syrup mixture in the mug and stir gently to blend the flavors.
  3. Steam the Milk: Using a milk steamer or frother, steam or froth 3/4 cup of your chosen milk until it reaches about 150°F, creating creamy texture and light foam.
  4. Combine the Mixtures: Slowly pour the steamed milk into the espresso-syrup mixture at a 45-degree angle to help the foam rise and blend delicately with the coffee base.
  5. Garnish for Appeal: Top your latte with toasted marshmallows placed on the surface and use a kitchen torch or broiler to toast them lightly until golden brown and slightly melted for an authentic s'mores experience.
  6. Serve and Savor: Serve immediately while warm and enjoy the deliciously rich and nostalgic blend of chocolate, marshmallow, and coffee flavors.

Notes

  • You can substitute toasted marshmallow syrup with a simple syrup infused by heating sugar water with toasted marshmallows to achieve similar flavor.
  • Non-dairy milk alternatives like oat or almond milk work well and pair nicely with the flavors.
  • Use a heat-resistant glass or mug to safely handle hot liquids and the broiling/toasting process.
  • If you don’t have a kitchen torch, broil the marshmallows in the oven for a short time but watch closely to prevent burning.
  • Adjust sweetness by varying the amount of syrup according to taste.
