Copycat Cinnamon Dolce Syrup Recipe (2024)

This recipe for Cinnamon Dolce Syrup is a Starbucks copycat hack that is so quick and easy you will never buy the flavored syrup again. Save money and enjoy delicious treats like a Cinnamon Dolce latte or coffee right in the comfort of your own home.

After I left my job I had to make some choices. Mostly I had to decide what NOT to spend money on anymore. When I was working at my full-time job, my routine included a trip to the coffee shop for a latte and most likely a pastry.

Then it became Starbucks more often than not because they opened a drive-through 3 blocks from my house!! I could easily be on a conference call, order my fix, and be on my way in no time.

So now that I'm not getting that nice paycheck, I make my own lattes at home. I'm a sucker for flavored lattes and by now you probably know I have a sweet tooth. One of my favorites is the Cinnamon Dolce Latte. I decided to make my own syrup and save money not only on making my coffee at home but also not buying $10-$20 bottles of syrup.

What to use Cinnamon Syrup for:

• Flavor your favorite vanilla frosting and use on cinnamon rolls or cupcakes!
• Mix some with a little bourbon for a sweet nightcap
• Use the syrup for pancakes or waffles (add to the batter or as a syrup)
• Add to whipped cream for an extra special treat

How to store your Homemade Syrup

Store your homemade syrup in a sealable bottle or jar. Glass is best, but you could also use plastic if that what you have. Just make sure it seals tightly to keep extra air out. Below is the type of flip-top bottle I use to store my homemade syrups in. The Cinnamon Dolce Syrup should stay good several weeks in the fridge, but I don't think it will last that long! Don't forget to label and date the bottle.
