1
Brew Espresso
Using an espresso machine, brew 2 shots of espresso into a coffee cup. Ensure the espresso has a rich crema on top.
2
Add Water
Add 60 ml of hot water to the brewed espresso to adjust the strength if desired.

3
Heat Milk
In a saucepan, heat 1 cup of whole milk over medium heat until it is hot but not boiling.
4
Froth Milk
Using a milk frother or steam wand, froth the hot milk until it is creamy and has a velvety texture, about 30 seconds to 1 minute.

5
Combine Espresso and Milk
Pour the frothed milk over the brewed espresso slowly, allowing the milk to mix with the espresso.
6
Add Flavoring (Optional)
If desired, add 1 tablespoon of vanilla syrup for sweetness or a sprinkle of cocoa powder on top for a chocolaty finish.
7
Serve
Serve the latte hot in a coffee cup and enjoy!
