What kind of apple is best for apple molasses?

The best apples for making apple molasses are sweet varieties like Fuji, Honeycrisp, or Gala. These apples hold up well when cooked and release natural sugars that enhance the syrupy consistency you'll want for your molasses.

Can I use store-bought apple syrup instead of making my own?

Yes, you can definitely use store-bought apple syrup if you're short on time. However, the flavor and richness may not match what you'll achieve by cooking your own apple molasses, especially when using fresh apples.

Is the Apple Crisp Macchiato suitable for people with dietary restrictions?

This recipe can be adapted to fit various dietary needs. If you're avoiding dairy, non-dairy milks like almond milk or oat milk can be used. Sugar alternatives can also replace brown sugar if you're watching your sugar intake.

Can I make this drink iced?

Absolutely! To make an iced Apple Crisp Macchiato, follow the same steps but serve it over ice instead of hot. This refreshing take is perfect for warmer days or when you want something cool while enjoying the flavors of autumn.

How long can the apple molasses be stored?

Apple molasses can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week. Ensure you let it cool completely before transferring it to a container so it stays fresher longer.
