Method

Beverages

  1. 1

    Prepare the Espresso

    Brew a shot of espresso using an espresso machine or a stovetop espresso maker. Aim for a rich and bold flavor.

  2. 2

    Steam the Milk

    Heat the milk in a steam wand until it reaches a temperature of around 150°F (65°C). Ensure the milk is well-textured, creating a velvety microfoam.

  3. 3

    Combine Espresso and Milk

    In a large cup, pour the shot of espresso. Slowly add the steamed milk over the espresso, allowing the two to blend together. Hold back the foam with a spoon to control the amount you pour in.

  4. 4

    Add Milk Foam

    Spoon a couple of tablespoons of milk foam on top of the latte for that signature finish.

  5. 5

    Sweeten and Spice (Optional)

    Add sugar to taste. If desired, sprinkle a pinch of cinnamon on top for added flavor.
