And dare I say this Salted Caramel Latte is better than Starbucks? There. I said it. And you better believe it! Made with coffee, fresh milk, sea salt, and caramel sauce, that all there is to it. No mystery syrups or high-calorie creamers, this latte is simple, delicious, and oh-so good.
How to Make a Caramel Latte
- In a small saucepan, heat the milk, caramel sauce, and sea salt until warmed.
- While milk is warming, pour coffee into a mug.
- After milk is warmed, remove from heat. Using an immersion blender, blend on low speed until milk becomes frothy.
- Pour into the coffee mug and top with foam.
What’s the Best Caramel for Coffee?
You can make this salted caramel coffee drink using any caramel sauce you’d like. You can find caramel sauces near the ice cream toppings, and sometimes in the baking aisle and / or near the coffee fixings.
Or, you can make your own Salted Caramel Sauce and omit the sea salt called for in this recipe!
Tips for Making Salted Caramel Latte
- This caramel latte recipe makes enough for one serving. You can easily multiply the recipe to serve more people.
- Use any kind of coffee you’d like. Just be sure to brew it before heating and frothing the milk.
- I love this homemade latte as is, but I bet you could sprinkle on a little cinnamon, nutmeg, and / or pumpkin pie spice to amp up the fall flavor.

I actually have yet to have my first PSL this year!!! But….I don’t even know if I NEED one with the deliciousness of this latte! I love anything salted caramel, so I NEED this! Pinned!
Thank so much for the kind words and pin, Taylor! This latte definitely works for when I don’t feel like driving to Starbucks! ๐
I’m positive that you could make a PSL that would kick Starbucks’ rear. But since I love salted caramel even more, not gonna fight with this choice! Looks so good!
Thanks, Mir! I’m not brave enough to conquer the PSL just yet! ๐
So simple yet so satisfying! Love the idea of salted caramel coffee…such a treat!

I am a latte/mocha/cappucino loving girl, but especially in the fall and winter! Caramel is definitely the best (I’ve actually never even had a PSL!)!
I agree, caramel is definitely the best…especially when the weather gets cooler! ๐
I’m totally with you on the PSL addiction! I try to limit them to 1 or 2 times a week – although I have something from Starbucks almost every weekday because they are right there in my work lobby taunting me with their deliciousness! Speaking of deliciousness – this salted caramel latte is now on my to-do list!
I think I would be at Starbucks every day too if there was one that close to me! Thanks for the kind words, Rachelle!
Sounds absolutely perfect, Gayle! I’m so obsessed with coffee too…I actually asked for a milk frother last Christmas so that I could make my own lattes as often as I like. ๐ Love this recipe!
Oh I’m sure you get good use out of that milk frother, Blair! I’ll have to put that on my Christmas list, too! ๐
Just when I didn’t think I could love any drink more than the Starbucks PSL YOUR fabulous recipe comes along! Can’t wait to try this – thank you for sharing ~ Cheers:)
