INGREDIENTS :
- Freshly ground coffee beans
- Cold milk
- Sweetener or flavorings optional
- Filtered water
INSTRUCTIONS :
- Using a Moka pot, portable espresso maker, or other brewing device, make strong coffee or espresso. If you’re making strong coffee, we recommend two to three ounces. If you’re making espresso, use one to two shots, depending on how much caffeine you’d like.
- Now you can froth your milk. If you have an automatic milk frother, use it as normal. If not, you can heat your milk using a microwave or stove. To froth your milk, shake it vigorously in a glass jar or whisk it in a bowl. Froth until your milk has doubled in size.
- Pour your coffee or espresso into a glass. If you’d like, add caramel or peppermint syrup. Holding back the foam with a spoon, pour in your hot milk. Then spoon on the foam. If you’d like, you can top with whipped cream and espresso powder.
EQUIPMENT
- Coffee or espresso maker (AeroPress, French press, or Moka pot)
- Microwave or stovetop
- Milk frother, glass jar with a lid, or bowl and whisk
NOTES
TIP: Espresso is bold, concentrated coffee made with pressurized hot water and very fine grounds. If you want to substitute regular coffee in a latte, you’ll want it to be as strong as possible.
