Equipment
- Espresso machine
- Small saucepan
- Milk frother or whisk
- Small mug
Ingredients
- 2 shots espresso or 1/2 cup strong coffee
- 3 ounces milk
- 1 teaspoon white sugar or 1.5 teaspoons sweetened condensed milk
- Cinnamon, cocoa powder, or espresso powder optional
Instructions
- Pull two shots of espresso using your espresso machine or stovetop Moka pot. You can also make ½ cup of strong coffee.
- Heat the milk over medium heat in a small saucepan on the stove. You want the milk scalded, not boiling, so don’t let it reach a full boil. Stir regularly to keep the milk from burning.
- Once the milk is hot, froth it using your milk frother or a whisk.
- Add the espresso or coffee to your mug. Mix in your white sugar or sweetened condensed milk. Then pour the frothy milk on top.
- If you’d like, you can add garnishes like ground cinnamon, cocoa powder, or espresso powder. Then enjoy your tasty Spanish latte!
