Method

Preparing Espresso

  1. 1

    Brew Espresso

    Using an espresso machine, brew 2 shots of espresso. If you don’t have an espresso machine, you can use a stovetop espresso maker or a French press to make strong coffee.

Steaming Milk

  1. 2

    Steam the Milk

    In a small saucepan, heat 1 cup of whole milk over medium heat until steaming but not boiling. Alternatively, use a milk frother to steam the milk until it’s frothy and heated.

Combining Ingredients

  1. 3

    Combine Ingredients

    In a large mug, pour the 2 shots of brewed espresso. If desired, add 1 tablespoon of vanilla syrup for sweetness. Stir gently.

  2. 4

    Add Steamed Milk

    Slowly pour the steamed milk into the mug with the espresso, holding back the foam with a spoon. Once most of the milk is added, spoon the foam on top of the latte.

Garnishing (Optional)

  1. 5

    Add Garnish

    If desired, sprinkle a teaspoon of cinnamon on top of the foam for added flavor.
