If you're enjoying the Cinnamon Dolce Latte from Starbucks, then you might enjoy a homemade version that tastes

Pretty delicious. Easy to do, and not a bad low calorie indulgence either!

Ingredients:
Shot of Espresso
Dusting - 1/8 teaspoon of ground cinnamon
1 Cup of milk for steaming
Sugar to taste
Starbucks Caramel Sundae Syrup (Optional, but recommended)

Pull your shot of espresso and mix in the ground cinnamon; start small because it's easy to go overboard.

Mix in Sugar if desired.

Steam milk and top off to make your latte.

Drizzle the sundae syrup over the top of the latte in rapid circles. (If you just squeeze the thing, you'll shoot gobs of caramel syrup through the steamed milk, but Quick circular patterns keep the drizzled syrup on top of the foam.)
