1
Brew Espresso
Using an espresso machine or an alternative brewing method, brew 2 shots of espresso. If using a stovetop espresso maker, add water to the bottom chamber and coffee grounds to the top chamber, then heat until brewed.
2
Set Aside
Once brewed, set the espresso aside to allow it to cool slightly while you prepare the milk.

3
Heat Milk
In a saucepan or using a milk steamer, heat 1 cup of milk over medium heat. If using a milk frother, pour the milk into the frother.
4
Froth Milk
If using a saucepan, whisk the milk vigorously as it heats until it becomes frothy. If using a steamer, steam until the milk is hot and frothy.

5
Mix Espresso and Milk
Pour the prepared espresso into a large mug. Slowly add the frothed milk on top, allowing the foam to sit on the surface.
6
Add Flavoring (Optional)
If desired, add 1 tablespoon of vanilla syrup for sweetness and sprinkle cinnamon on top for added flavor.
7
Serve
Serve immediately while hot, and enjoy your homemade latte!
