Café Marie-Jeanne

Method

Café Marie-Jeanne

  1. 1

    Prepare the Espresso

    Brew 2 shots of espresso using an espresso machine or stovetop espresso maker. Pour the espresso into a large coffee mug.

  2. 2

    Heat the Milk

    In a small saucepan, heat 1 cup of milk over medium heat until steaming but not boiling. Stir occasionally to prevent scalding.

  3. 3

    Froth the Milk

    Once heated, use a milk frother or whisk to froth the milk until it is creamy and has a nice foam on top.

  4. 4

    Combine Espresso and Milk

    Pour the frothed milk over the brewed espresso in the coffee mug, leaving some room at the top for the whipped cream.

  5. 5

    Add Flavorings

    Stir in 2 tablespoons of heavy cream, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, and 1 tablespoon of sugar into the coffee mixture until well combined.

  6. 6

    Prepare Cocoa Topping

    In a small bowl, mix 1 tablespoon of cocoa powder with a little hot water to create a paste. Drizzle this over the top of the drink.

  7. 7

    Top with Whipped Cream

    Add 1 cup of whipped cream on top of the drink and gently swirl it to create a beautiful presentation.

  8. 8

    Garnish

    Finish by sprinkling 2 tablespoons of chocolate shavings over the whipped cream for an elegant touch.
