Ingredients

3 pumps of apple brown sugar syrup
8-10 oz of oatmilk
Ice cubes
1 cup (1 shot) of blonde espresso (or decaf espresso if preferred)
Spiced apple drizzle

Instructions

1. Add Apple Brown Sugar Syrup

Begin by adding 3 pumps of apple brown sugar syrup to your Starbucks cup. This syrup is the foundation of the drink, providing that delightful apple-pie flavor with hints of cinnamon and brown sugar. The sweet and spiced notes of the syrup set the stage for the rest of the ingredients.

2. Pour Oatmilk

Next, pour 8-10 ounces of oatmilk into the cup. The amount of oatmilk you use can vary depending on how creamy you like your drink. Oatmilk is the ideal choice for this macchiato because it adds a smooth, velvety texture and a subtle sweetness that complements the apple brown sugar syrup. Pour until the cup is about three-quarters full, leaving room for ice and espresso.

3. Add Ice Cubes

Add a generous handful of ice cubes to the cup. The ice not only chills the drink but also helps to balance the sweetness and keeps the flavors refreshing. The amount of ice can be adjusted based on your preference for a colder or slightly less chilled drink.

4. Pour the Blonde Espresso

Now, it’s time to add the espresso. Pour 1 shot of blonde espresso slowly over the oatmilk and ice. The espresso will create a beautiful layered effect as it floats atop the oatmilk.

Blonde espresso is a great choice because it’s lighter and sweeter than regular espresso, allowing the apple and brown sugar flavors to shine through. If you prefer a less intense coffee flavor, you can replace the blonde espresso with a decaf shot.

5. Top with Spiced Apple Drizzle

The final touch is the spiced apple drizzle. Drizzle it generously over the top of the espresso. This drizzle adds an extra burst of apple flavor and a hint of spice that elevates the drink to a whole new level of autumnal bliss.

Each sip will have a bit of that spiced apple goodness, making this macchiato feel like a warm hug in a cup.

Tips for the Perfect Macchiato

Customize the Sweetness: If you prefer your drink a little less sweet, you can reduce the number of pumps of apple brown sugar syrup to two instead of three.
Experiment with Milk: While oatmilk is the standard for this recipe, feel free to experiment with other milk options like almond or soy if you prefer a different flavor profile.
Chilled or Warm: If you’re not in the mood for a cold drink, you can skip the ice and heat the oatmilk before adding it to the syrup. This turns your macchiato into a warm, cozy treat—perfect for chilly mornings.

Enjoy your Starbucks Grande Apple Crisp Oatmilk Macchiato as you embrace the flavors of fall. This drink is a delightful blend of sweet, spiced, and creamy, making it a must-try for any Starbucks fan looking to capture the essence of the season.
