Ingredients
  • 2/3 cup sugar
  • 1/3 cup water
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1/3 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
  • 3 tablespoon bourbon
  • 2/3 cup medium roast coffee, preferably the original donut shop coffee

  • fresh whipped cream, for garnish
  • fresh grated nutmeg, for garnish
Directions
  1. In a medium, heavy-bottomed pan over medium-high, heat the sugar and water.
  2. Boil, swirling the pan (not stirring) until the mixture turns a golden amber color.
  3. Remove from heat, immediately add the butter and swirl to combine, taking care to keep the pan at a distance as the liquid bubbles up and foams.
  4. When the bubbling has subsided and the butter and caramel are combined, add the cream, vanilla, and bourbon and stir to incorporate.
  5. Set aside to cool.
  6. In a mug, pour fresh bourbon caramel sauce at bottom.
  7. Pour in fresh coffee and warm milk. Stir.
