Hello! My ex introduced me to this excellent drink at Starbucks several years ago and I LOVE it! I plan on purchasing an espresso machine soon so I need to ask how to make an UPSIDE-DOWN version, lol. This is what we always ordered: a Grande-upside-down-triple-Caramel Macchiato! Could someone explain how to make this please? Also, any suggestions on a good, fairly inexpensive espresso machine would be appreciated as well! Thanks! : )
