Coffee

Milk

Flavoring (optional)

Method

Preparing the Espresso

  1. 1

    Brew the Espresso

    Using an espresso machine, brew 2 shots of espresso. If you don’t have an espresso machine, you can use a stovetop espresso maker or a strong coffee brew method.

Steaming the Milk

  1. 2

    Steam the Milk

    In a small saucepan or using a milk steamer, heat 1 cup of whole milk until hot but not boiling. If using a saucepan, whisk the milk to create foam. Aim for a velvety texture.

Combining the Ingredients

  1. 3

    Mix Espresso and Milk

    In a large mug, pour the prepared espresso shots. If using any flavoring, add the vanilla syrup or cocoa powder at this stage.

  2. 4

    Add Steamed Milk

    Slowly pour the steamed milk over the espresso, holding back the foam with a spoon. Then, top with the remaining foam from the milk.

Finishing Touches

  1. 5

    Garnish (optional)

    If desired, sprinkle a little cocoa powder on top or drizzle some additional vanilla syrup for extra flavor.
