Starbucks Caramel Apple cider CopyCat

Starbucks Caramel Apple Cider Copycat

Me and Lacey love to get the caramel apple cider from starbucks, but it is expensive, I found this copycat recipe here:


First you need to make the cinnamon dulce syrup (or this lady on the site says you can buy it for $13 from starbucks) but it is so easy to make, I say just make this cinnamon syrup mixture:


1/2 cup white sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 cup water
Bring to boil , stirring constantly
Add:
1 Tblsp cinnamon
remove from heat, stir til all combined.
(this made my kitchen smell so good too!)

Pour the  cinnamon water mixture into a glass mason jar so you can store in fridge when you are done.

Heat over the stovetop a bottle of  Tree Top Apple Juice (or any brand, that is what this lady says starbucks used) until just starting to boil.

In a mug, put in 3 to 4 Tblsp of the cinnamon syrup, then fill your mug with the heated apple juice.  Then put on top
2 Tblsp caramel ice cream topping (she used hersheys) and stir that in until it melts.

Now after you stir it all together in your mug you can put some whipped cream on top (and more caramel syrup drizzled over that)

I just made this and it is really good.  Mine turned out a little too sweet, so I think you can maybe just start with 2 Tblsp of the cinnamon syrup.  And I put in 2 tsp of caramel ice cream topping.

It is sooooooo good!  Make some today and warm your pretty self up!  LOVE IT!
