Now for my favorite part: how to use it!
I’ve had my machine for about two years so I have had a lot of time to perfect my many recipes.

Instructions - Pour the cup of milk and the 2 pumps of
vanilla syrup into the milk frother (comes included with Nespresso machine)

As college students, we often find ourselves stay up all night working on endless assignments or to study for a test, and are in desperate need for some late-night caffeine. But when it is past 6 pm, it’s hard to find coffee shops near me that are open. When this happens to me, my perfect remedy is to use my Nespresso machine to create the most amazing lattes, cappuccinos, mochas, and whatever else I can think of.
I have the Nespresso Essenza Mini Original Espresso Machine, which is $149.95 on Amazon. It is a little bit more expensive than your average Keurig, but so much worth the purchase in my opinion. The quality of their Nespresso pods are like no other and produce café level drinks. There are also many different machines not just for espresso but for regular coffee blends as well. My favorite coffee capsules include the Cocoa Truffle, Caramel Crème Brulee, and Roma and there are so many other flavors that will satisfy any flavor palate.
ICED CARAMEL MACCHIATO
Ingredients - 1 Capsule of Caramel Crème Brulee Espresso

Instruction - Pour the cup of milk into a cup of ice and
drizzle in caramel sauce, and shake until combined
- Brew espresso and pour over milk/caramel mix - Optional: add extra caramel drizzle on top
I hope you enjoy my Nespresso coffee recipes and find them better than your average Starbucks
drinks.
