Starbucks Coconut Milk Mocha Macchiato (Copycat)
A smooth and silky iced macchiato made with coconut milk, bold espresso, and a touch of white chocolate mocha sauce. This homemade version tastes just like Starbucks.
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons white chocolate mocha sauce
- 45 ml strong espresso (freshly brewed)
- ¼ cup chilled coconut milk
- Ice cubes
- 1–2 teaspoons caramel syrup (for topping, optional)
Instructions
- Brew a strong shot of espresso and set it aside for a moment to cool slightly.
- Fill a tall glass with ice cubes, then drizzle the white chocolate mocha sauce over the ice.
- Pour the chilled coconut milk slowly over the ice so it settles toward the bottom.
- Gently pour the espresso over the coconut milk to create the macchiato’s layered “stained milk” look.
- Finish with a light caramel drizzle on top, if you enjoy extra sweetness. Serve immediately.
Notes
- For stronger coffee flavor: Add an extra half-shot of espresso.
- Sweeter version: Mix a teaspoon of caramel or vanilla syrup into the coconut milk before layering.
- Creamier texture: Use canned coconut milk or add 1 tbsp coconut cream.
- Mocha twist: Add ½ tablespoon cocoa powder to the white chocolate sauce layer.
- For a hot version: Warm the coconut milk and skip the ice.
