Ingredients

  • 125g white sugar
  • 125g white miso
  • 500ml water
  • 250g sugar
  • 60ml water
  • 15g white vinegar
  • 125ml water (boil on the side)

Directions

  1. In a bowl, mix 125g white miso and 125g white sugar until smooth, then add 500ml water and stir well.
  2. Heat over low heat, stirring occasionally, and reduce gently for about 10 minutes, until the mixture thickens slightly and takes on a syrupy texture.
  3. Remove the pan from the heat and allow the syrup to cool to room temperature. Once cooled, pour the syrup into a clean, airtight bottle for storage.
  4. Pour 250g sugar, 60ml water and 15g vinegar into a saucepan and stir. Heat the mixture over medium heat, keeping an eye on the color of the caramel.
  5. Meanwhile, bring 125ml of water to the boil in another saucepan. When the caramel takes on a lovely golden hue, carefully deglaze it with the boiling water (watch out for splashes!).
  6. Leave to simmer for a few minutes, then remove the pan from the heat. Leave the caramel to cool to room temperature.
  7. Finally, pour the caramel-miso mixture into the bottom of your mug, then pour the hot milk over it, using circular movements to blend the flavors.
  8. If you like, add a drizzle of caramel as a topping and it's ready!
