Coffee Preparation

    Brew the Espresso

    Start by brewing two shots of espresso using your espresso machine. Use fresh coffee grounds for the best flavor.

    In a small saucepan, heat 60 ml of water until just boiling, then remove from heat.

    Pour 200 ml of milk into a steaming pitcher. Use the steam wand on your espresso machine to heat and froth the milk until it reaches a creamy texture and a temperature of around 65°C (149°F).

    Add Vanilla Syrup

    Once the milk is frothed, add 1 tablespoon of vanilla syrup into the milk and gently stir to combine.
