Method
Brewing Espresso
- 1
Prepare the Espresso
Using an espresso machine, brew 2 shots of espresso. If you do not have an espresso machine, you can use a stove-top espresso maker or a French press with finely ground coffee.
Steaming Milk
- 2
Steam the Milk
Pour 1 cup of whole milk into a steam pitcher. Use a steam wand to heat the milk until it reaches about 150°F (65°C). If you don't have a steam wand, you can heat the milk on the stove and froth it using a milk frother or by whisking it vigorously.
Combining Ingredients

Combine Espresso and Milk
In a large mug, pour the brewed espresso shots. If desired, add 1 tablespoon of vanilla syrup for sweetness. Slowly pour the steamed milk over the espresso, holding back the foam with a spoon. After most of the milk has been added, spoon the remaining foam on top.
