Cappuccino or Latte Ingredients

Method

Cappuccino or Latte Directions

1

Brew the Espresso

Using an espresso machine, brew 2 shots of espresso into a cup. Make sure the espresso is rich and has a nice crema on top.

2

Heat the Milk

In a small saucepan, heat 1 cup of milk over medium heat until it is hot but not boiling. Alternatively, you can use a milk frother to steam the milk.

3

Froth the Milk

Once the milk is heated, use a frother to create foam. Froth until the milk has doubled in volume and has a creamy texture.

4

Combine Espresso and Milk

Pour the brewed espresso into a large cup. Slowly add the steamed milk, allowing it to mix with the espresso. For a Latte, use more steamed milk and less foam; for a Cappuccino, use equal parts of steamed milk and foam.

5

Add Toppings

Sprinkle cocoa powder or cinnamon on top of the drink for added flavor. Add sugar to taste, stirring gently to combine.
