Prepare espresso and allow it to cool slightly.
1 shot espresso
To a tall glass filled with ice, add vanilla syrup and milk. Top with ice.
½ ounce vanilla syrup, ¾ cup whole milk
Pour cooled espresso over top.
Drizzle the top and inner rim of the glass with caramel sauce.
2 tablespoons caramel sauce

Feel free to substitute the milk of your choice.
Make sure that the espresso is slightly cooled before adding it to the glass so that it does not melt the ice.

In order to get the classic layered ombré effect quintessential to the coffee-shop version of this drink, be sure to add the ingredients to the glass in the order described.
If you wish, you can decorate the glass with caramel drizzle before adding any of the other ingredients, but it's not necessary as the caramel will drip down around the edges of the glass once the drink is prepared.

For a hot caramel macchiato, use steamed milk and add the espresso while it is still hot.
