Latte Ingredients

Method

Latte Preparation

  1. 1

    Brew the Espresso

    Start by brewing a shot of espresso using your espresso machine or stovetop espresso maker.

  2. 2

    Heat the Milk

    In a small saucepan, heat the milk over medium heat until it is hot but not boiling. Alternatively, you can use a milk frother or steam wand if available.

  3. 3

    Froth the Milk

    Once heated, froth the milk using a whisk, milk frother, or steam wand until it reaches a creamy consistency with a nice foam on top.

  4. 4

    Combine Ingredients

    Pour the brewed espresso into a large mug. Add the sugar and vanilla extract, stirring until dissolved.

  5. 5

    Add Milk

    Slowly pour the frothed milk over the espresso, holding back the foam with a spoon to create layers. Top with the foamy milk.

  6. 6

    Garnish

    Dust the top with ground cinnamon for added flavor and aroma. Serve immediately.
