Key Ingredients

- Brown Sugar: This adds a rich caramel note to the drink.

Starbucks uses Oatly brand oat milk. It is a rich and creamy plant-based milk that froths just as well as regular milk.
It partially depends upon the brand you use. Oatly oat milk tastes like a slightly sweet cow’s milk. It has the same creamy texture and can even be used with cereal like regular milk. Oat milk has a milder flavor than soy or almond milk.

Step 2. Add the mixture into a glass and top with oat milk and mix.
Step 3. Top with a decent amount of cold Reddi-Whip Nitro Foam and top with brown sugar. Serve and Enjoy!
What Does Espresso Taste Like?
The perfect espresso should taste rich in flavor. Espresso should be a nice sweet flavor. It should give your beverage a caramel-like flavor.
Can I Use Ground Cinnamon?
This recipe uses a cinnamon stick which can give you the rawest and most flavorful cinnamon taste. However, if you need to substitute it out with ground cinnamon, both work just fine.
