What’s in a Sweet on You Cloud Latte?
This Sweet on U latte comes together quickly with a few simple kitchen ingredients.
Espresso
As with most limited-time Dunkin’ offerings, this drink starts with bold espresso sips.
But you don’t need a home espresso bar to enjoy it!
My favorite trick for making an espresso-like drink without a machine is an Aeropress.
It’s quick and takes up no counter space!
This little device is also a fraction of the price of a full-on espresso machine.
But you can also use coffee brewed slightly stronger than you would normally brew it.
Instant espresso is another option for infusing this punnily-named drink with the delectable coffee flavor you’ve come to expect from all Dunkin’ locations.
Milk
The original version uses whole milk, but you can substitute any milk you have.
For fitness-minded fans, whole milk gives this drink a boost with about 8 grams of protein per serving.
I love using oat milk for my home recreations of special menu items and sweet treats, though it doesn’t offer the same protein boost as whole milk.
Use whichever milk option suits you best.
For cold foam, mix heavy whipping cream and milk. Sweeten with a teaspoon of sugar or vanilla-flavored syrup before frothing.
Coconut & Caramel
The real stars of this drink are the swirls of caramel and hints of coconut that hit you at that very first sip.
I love easy ways to recreate that Dunkin’ joy, and I use caramel syrup and coconut syrup to add just the right amount of flavor to this delectable sip.
Since the drink is cold, using caramel syrup instead of caramel sauce ensures better overall flavor blending.
But caramel sauce is incredible in hot drinks!
Cold Foam
And the drink finishes with a sweet, cold foam that envelops the coconutty caramel flavors in a delicious fusion that outshines the rest of the Valentine line-up.
