1
Brew the Espresso
Start by brewing 2 shots of espresso using your espresso machine or stovetop espresso maker. Make sure the espresso is rich and aromatic.
2
Heat the Milk
In a small saucepan, heat 1 cup of milk over medium heat. Stir occasionally to prevent it from scorching. Heat until it is steaming but not boiling.
3
Froth the Milk
Once the milk is heated, use a milk frother or a whisk to froth the milk until it is light and airy. Aim for a velvety texture.
4
Combine Ingredients
In a large coffee mug, pour the brewed espresso. Add 1 tsp of sugar and 0.5 tsp of vanilla extract. Stir to combine.
5
Add Frothed Milk
Slowly pour the frothed milk over the espresso mixture. Hold back the foam with a spoon to allow the milk to settle first, then spoon the foam on top.
6
Garnish
Sprinkle ground cinnamon on top of the foam for an added touch of flavor.
