The toffee nut latte is a rich, buttery latte flavored with toffee-nut syrup and often finished with crushed toffee or nuts on top. It tastes like caramel's deeper, toastier cousin — sweet with a roasted, nutty edge that makes it a cold-weather favorite.

Ingredients

  • 2 shots of espresso
  • 1.5 tbsp toffee nut syrup (or a mix of caramel syrup and a few drops of almond extract)
  • 8 oz whole milk
  • Optional: crushed toffee or chopped toasted almonds for the top

Step-by-step

  1. Add the toffee nut syrup to a 12 oz cup.
  2. Pull two shots of espresso over the syrup and stir to combine.
  3. Steam the milk to glossy microfoam.
  4. Pour the milk into the cup, blending with the syrup-espresso base.
  5. Sprinkle crushed toffee or chopped toasted almonds over the foam.

Tips for the best cup

  • If you can't find toffee nut syrup, combine caramel syrup with a drop of almond extract for a close match.
  • Toasted nuts on top add texture and reinforce the nutty flavor.
  • A medium-dark roast with caramel notes complements the toffee.

Key takeaways

  • A toffee nut latte is built on buttery toffee-nut syrup.
  • Crushed toffee or nuts on top add crunch and flavor.
  • Caramel syrup plus almond extract is a good homemade substitute.
