Method
Preparing Espresso
- 1
Brew the Espresso
Using an espresso machine, brew 2 shots of espresso according to the manufacturer's instructions. Ensure the espresso is rich and well-extracted for the best flavor.
Steaming Milk
- 2
Steam the Milk
Pour 1 cup of whole milk into a steaming pitcher. Use the steam wand of the espresso machine to steam the milk until it reaches a temperature of 150-160°F (65-70°C) and has a velvety microfoam texture. If you don't have a steam wand, you can heat the milk gently on the stove, but frothing will be limited.
Combining Ingredients

Combine Espresso and Milk
In a large coffee cup, pour the brewed espresso shots. Slowly add the steamed milk over the espresso, allowing the foam to float on top.
