Servings: 1

Ingredients

Espresso: 1 shot
Milk: 1 cup
Sea salt caramel syrup: 2 tablespoons
Whipped cream: to taste
Sea salt flakes: a pinch (for topping)

Instructions

Brew a shot of espresso using your preferred method and set aside to cool slightly.
In a small saucepan, heat the milk over medium heat until it is hot but not boiling, stirring occasionally to prevent scorching.
Once the milk is heated, pour it into a large mug and add the sea salt caramel syrup. Stir gently to combine.
Using a frother or a whisk, froth the milk until it becomes creamy and foamy, ensuring a light texture.
Carefully pour the espresso shot over the frothed milk, allowing it to create a beautiful layered effect.
Top your Maritime Macchiato with a generous dollop of whipped cream.
Finish by sprinkling a pinch of sea salt flakes on top for that perfect salty-sweet balance.
Serve hot and enjoy the taste of the ocean with every sip!
