1
Prepare the Espresso
Brew 2 shots of espresso using an espresso machine or stovetop Moka pot. Ensure the espresso is rich and aromatic.
2
Heat the Milk
In a small saucepan, heat 1 cup of milk over medium heat until it is hot but not boiling. Stir occasionally to prevent scalding.
3
Froth the Milk
Using a milk frother, whisk the heated milk until it becomes frothy and creamy. If you don't have a frother, you can use a whisk or shake it in a jar.
4
Combine Espresso and Milk
In a large mug, pour the brewed espresso. Slowly add the frothed milk, holding back the foam with a spoon. Let the foam sit on top.
5
Add Sweetener and Cinnamon
If you prefer your latte sweet, add 1 teaspoon of sweetener to the espresso before adding milk. Sprinkle ground cinnamon on top for extra flavor.
