1
Brew Espresso
Brew 2 shots of espresso using an espresso machine or stovetop espresso maker. Ensure the coffee is rich and concentrated.
2
Add Water
Dilute the espresso with 240ml of hot water if desired for a lighter flavor. This step is optional.

3
Heat Milk
In a small saucepan, heat 200ml of whole milk over medium heat until steaming, but do not let it boil.
4
Froth Milk
Using a milk frother or a whisk, froth the heated milk until it becomes light and airy, creating a thick foam.
5
Add Vanilla Syrup
Stir in 1 tablespoon of vanilla syrup to the frothed milk for added sweetness and flavor.

6
Combine Espresso and Milk
In a large cup, pour the brewed espresso. Slowly add the frothed milk over the espresso, allowing the foam to float on top.
7
Add Toppings
Sprinkle 1 teaspoon of cocoa powder over the foam for garnish. Optionally, add cinnamon to taste.
