1
Brew Espresso
Using an espresso machine, brew 2 shots of espresso. Make sure to use fresh coffee grounds for optimal flavor.
2
Combine with Water
After brewing, mix the espresso with 60 ml of hot water to create an Americano-like base.

3
Heat the Milk
In a small saucepan, heat 200 ml of whole milk over medium heat until it is hot but not boiling.
4
Froth the Milk
Use a milk frother or whisk to froth the heated milk until it becomes creamy and has doubled in volume.
5
Add Vanilla Syrup
Once frothed, stir in 1 tablespoon of vanilla syrup for added flavor.

6
Combine Espresso and Milk
In a large cup, pour the espresso base, followed by the frothed milk, allowing it to settle on top.
7
Add Toppings
Sprinkle 1 teaspoon of cocoa powder on top of the frothed milk. Optionally, add cinnamon to taste for additional flavor.
