If you love coffee, you’ll love our selection of coffee syrup flavours, or else you wouldn’t have ended up here. But sometimes, you may just want a change from the traditional taste of coffee.
Whether it is to add a bit of sweetness without popping in your usual two teaspoons of sugar or to make the taste a bit more mellow, syrups can alter the taste of coffee as much or as little as you wish.
But with so much variety on the market, it can be hard finding the best coffee syrup for you. Here are the ten most popular coffee syrups in the UK, including our picks for the best available:
The Best Coffee Syrup Flavours
Caramel:
Caramel syrup for coffee is the most popular flavour by far, as it adds some natural sweetness and packs a powerful taste. It can be mixed with other variations well, especially those which are fruit-based like apple and pear. It is also perfect in iced coffees, milkshakes, cocktails and teas for a more indulgent offering.
