In a saucepan, combine the sugar and water over medium heat.
Stir the mixture until the sugar dissolves and the liquid turns golden brown.
Be careful not to burn the caramel; it can go from golden brown to burnt quickly.
Once the desired colour is achieved, remove the saucepan from the heat and let it cool for a minute.
Now that your caramel sauce is ready, it’s time to add the milk and create the perfect balance of flavours:
Slowly pour the milk into the saucepan with the caramel sauce.
Return the saucepan to medium heat and whisk gently until the caramel dissolves completely into the milk.
Continue heating the mixture until it reaches your desired temperature.
Remember to stir frequently to prevent the milk from scorching.
