Notes
You can add more or less sugar based on how sweet you like your coffee drinks.
You can add your favorite sweetener here. I like the brown sugar because it adds a little extra depth of caramel flavor, but regular sugar, agave, or maple syrup (yes!) would also be great here. Another option would be flavored syrups to add different flavor variants (hazelnut syrup would be amazing!)
