Café au Lait
Makes 1 serving
Translated from French as “coffee with milk,” this simple beverage calls for equal parts coffee and steamed milk. Here, we use espresso in place of drip coffee to give some extra favor.
Ingredients
- Ground espresso for a double shot
- ½ cup milk
Preparation
- Brew a double espresso into a heatproof mug.
- Put the milk into the Frothing Pitcher. If using the EM-160, turn the Steam/Hot Water Knob to the ON position and press the STEAM button.
- Using the Steam/Hot Water Wand, steam the milk until the foam has almost reached the top of the pitcher and you can feel that the milk is quite hot. Tap the pitcher a few times to remove any larger bubbles.
- Slowly pour all of the milk, holding back the foam, into the mug with the espresso.
- Serve immediately.
