1
Brew Espresso
Using an espresso machine, brew 2 shots of espresso. Ensure the coffee grounds are tamped evenly for optimal extraction.

2
Heat and Froth Milk
In a small saucepan, heat 1 cup of whole milk over medium heat until steaming but not boiling. Use a milk frother or whisk to froth the milk until it is creamy and has a good amount of foam.

3
Combine Ingredients
In a large mug, pour the brewed espresso first. Slowly add the frothed milk, holding back the foam with a spoon to create layers. Once combined, spoon the remaining milk foam on top.
4
Add Toppings
Sprinkle a teaspoon of cocoa powder over the top for a touch of flavor. If desired, add sugar or vanilla syrup to taste, stirring gently to incorporate.
