1
Brew Espresso
Using an espresso machine, brew 2 shots of espresso. Pour the espresso into a pre-warmed cup.
2
Steam Milk
In a separate container, steam 0.5 cups of milk until it reaches a creamy texture. If you have a milk frother, use it to create a nice foam.
3
Add Vanilla Syrup
Once the milk is steamed, stir in 1 tablespoon of vanilla syrup until well combined.
4
Combine Espresso and Milk
Slowly pour the steamed milk into the espresso, allowing the milk to float on top, creating a 'mark' or 'stain' on the espresso.
5
Garnish
Sprinkle 1 teaspoon of cocoa powder on top of the foam for decoration. Optionally, add whipped cream if desired.
6
Serve
Serve immediately while hot, and enjoy your delicious macchiato!
