Beverage Ingredients

Method

Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Brew the Espresso

    Using an espresso machine, brew one shot of espresso into a pre-warmed cup. If you don’t have an espresso machine, you can use a stovetop espresso maker or strong brewed coffee as an alternative.

  2. 2

    Heat the Milk

    In a small saucepan, heat 1 cup of milk over medium heat until it is hot but not boiling. You can also use a milk frother or microwave for this step.

  3. 3

    Froth the Milk

    Once the milk is heated, froth it using a frother or whisk until it becomes creamy and foamy. If using a whisk, whisk vigorously to create foam.

  4. 4

    Combine Ingredients

    Pour the brewed espresso into a large mug, add the sugar, and stir until dissolved. Slowly pour the frothed milk over the espresso, allowing the foam to sit on top.

  5. 5

    Add Cinnamon (optional)

    Sprinkle a pinch of cinnamon on top of the frothed milk for added flavor, if desired.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Your latte is ready to be enjoyed! Serve hot and enjoy it as is or with a pastry.
