Drinks

  1. 1

    Brew Espresso

    Brew two shots of espresso (about 60 ml) using your espresso machine. Pour into a pre-warmed mug.

  2. 2

    Steam Milk

    Steam the whole milk until hot and velvety, with light microfoam. Target around 65–70°C (149–158°F).

  3. 3

    Add Vanilla Syrup

    Pour the vanilla syrup into the bottom of the mug with the espresso and swirl to distribute.

  4. 4

    Combine Espresso and Syrup

    Stir the espresso and vanilla syrup together until evenly mixed.

  5. 5

    Pour Steamed Milk

    Slowly pour the steamed milk into the mug, holding back the foam with a spoon to create a smooth latte. Top with a thin layer of microfoam if desired.

  6. 6

    Finish with Topping

    Top with whipped cream if desired and drizzle a small amount of vanilla syrup for aroma.
