Cozy in a Cup
The Cinnamon Dolce Latte captures everything comforting about fall and winter—warm cinnamon, sweet brown sugar, and rich coffee. It's like a hug in mug form.
"Dolce" Means Sweet
"Dolce" is Italian for sweet, and this latte lives up to its name. The combination of brown sugar and cinnamon creates a caramel-like sweetness that's addictive.
Making Cinnamon Sugar Syrup
For the best flavor, make the syrup fresh:
- Combine brown sugar, water, and cinnamon in equal parts
- Simmer until sugar dissolves
- Cool and store for up to 2 weeks
The Perfect Cinnamon
Use Ceylon cinnamon (true cinnamon) if possible. It's sweeter and less harsh than cassia cinnamon, which is what's typically sold as "cinnamon" in stores.
