A simple way to describe this increasingly popular coffee shop drink would be “a small strong latte.” It typically has a higher proportion of espresso to milk and slightly less foam than a latte.
Ingredients
- Ground espresso for a double shot
- ¼ cup milk (dairy or nondairy)
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 steaming wand, steam the milk until the foam has reached two-thirds of the way up 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 a small amount of the steamed milk, about half the volume of the espresso, into the mug with the espresso, holding back the foam with a spoon. Top with a very thin layer of foam.
- Serve immediately
