1
Brew Espresso
Using an espresso machine, brew 2 shots of fresh espresso. If you don't have an espresso machine, you can use a strong coffee alternative.
2
Mix with Hot Water
Once the espresso is brewed, mix it with 100 ml of hot water to create a diluted espresso base.

3
Heat the Milk
In a small saucepan, heat 1 cup of milk over medium heat until it’s steaming. Do not let it boil.
4
Add Flavoring
Once the milk is heated, remove it from heat and stir in 1 tsp of peppermint extract and 2 tsp of sugar or sweetener until fully dissolved.

5
Combine Coffee and Milk
Pour the peppermint-flavored milk mixture over the diluted espresso in a large mug, stirring gently to combine.
6
Add Toppings
Top the latte with a generous dollop of whipped cream, then sprinkle crushed peppermint candies and cocoa powder (if using) on top.
