I am a MAJOR coffee addict, and it doesn't always have to be Starbucks. In fact, my favorite drinks come from Dunn Bros. Does anyone have one of those? No matter where I go, lattes are my favorite, especially caramel and white chocolate.
Luckily I live way out of town, otherwise I would spend most of my money there.
Since I'm addicted to caffeine, I've learned how to make some pretty good lattes and cappuccinos myself. Does anyone have an espresso machine? My favorite latte recipe of my own is to make a cappuccino with the espresso machine using skim milk, then when the milk is steamed I add a touch of brown sugar, a little chocolate or caramel syrup (like what you put on ice cream), a touch of vanilla, then mix it all together while still steaming hot and frothy. If you don't want to use the syrup, you can use a little hershey's unsweetened cocoa (like for baking). My hubby gets quite creative when he makes them by adding flavored coffee creamer or flavored hot cocoa powder to the steamed milk. There's all kinds of possibilities.
