1
Brew the Espresso
Brew 2 shots of espresso using an espresso machine or stovetop espresso maker. Use high-quality coffee beans for the best flavor.
2
Heat the Water
In a small saucepan, heat 60 ml of water until just below boiling. This will be used to dilute the espresso if desired.

3
Heat the Milk
In a saucepan, heat 200 ml of whole milk over medium heat until it's steaming, but not boiling.
4
Froth the Milk
Using a milk frother or whisk, froth the heated milk until it doubles in volume and forms a creamy foam.
5
Add Flavor
Stir in 1 tsp of vanilla extract and sugar to taste into the frothed milk.

6
Combine Ingredients
In a large coffee cup, pour the brewed espresso. If desired, add the heated water to dilute the espresso slightly.
7
Add the Frothed Milk
Gently spoon the frothed milk over the espresso, allowing the foam to sit on top.
8
Garnish
Sprinkle cocoa powder and cinnamon on top of the foam according to your preference.
