Craving for Starbucks? Recreate These Easy Homemade Drinks in Under Five Minutes

Missing out on your Starbucks fix as a result of staying at home to be safe? Worry no more because you can make homemade Starbucks drinks in a few minutes!

Generally speaking, although Starbucks drinks seemed to look complicated, they are easy to make. In addition, all the ingredients that you need like coffee, milk, sugar, and primary flavoring are already in your house.

The process also requires very little special equipment. To get things started, you need to start with the basics, which include your syrup, coffee, caramel, and whipped cream.

Coffee

As we all know, these drinks are espresso-based. For those who have an espresso machine at home, that is a plus. However, for the other, instant coffee will do just fine.

Whipped Cream

You can easily make your own using an electric mixer to whip heavy cream until you achieve the right consistency. You can also get a can of your favorite whipped cream on your next grocery run as an alternative.

Caramel

A bottle of caramel sauce can be easily found in grocery stores, but you can also follow a recipe from Food Network to recreate one.

Syrup

True to its name, you can create syrup by heating a cup of sugar and a cup of water on the stove for a few minutes. Don't forget to add a tablespoon of vanilla extract for flavor.

Starbucks Drinks You Can Recreate At Home

Flat White

Widely popular amongst students, the flat white can be recreated by making fine, frothy milk. This is easy with the use of a frother, but you can also whisk the milk until it froths. You opt to add sugar to taste, but it is just as perfect without the sweetener.

Iced Caramel Macchiato

Making an iced caramel macchiato looks complicated, but the actual process is simple. According to a recipe from Eugenie's kitchen, add vanilla syrup to fill the cup's bottom, followed by iced cubes. Pour in cold milk followed by two shots of espresso or strongly brewed coffee. To finish, drizzle the top with caramel sauce.

Caramel Frappuccino

In a blender, add ice cubes, two espresso shots or strongly brewed coffee, cold milk, caramel sauce, and caramel syrup. Blend them until you achieve a smoothie-like consistency. Pour it in a glass, and for a finishing touch, top it with whipped cream and drizzle homemade caramel sauce.

White Chocolate Mocha

This drink is one of the most famous Starbucks drinks that celebrities often prefer. Start by combining coffee, milk, and white chocolate chips in a small saucepan. Let it simmer over medium-high heat while whisking constantly. Remove it from the stove and then stir in your vanilla syrup. Pour it into a large mug and top with whipped cream.

Vanilla Latte

For your homemade vanilla latte, start by combining your espresso shots or strongly brewed coffee, vanilla syrup, and milk into a small saucepan. Let it simmer over medium heat for about five minutes. After removing from the stove, whisk it until it becomes frothy. Pour the finished concoction into a mug and enjoy.
