Hibiscus Latte
Makes 1 serving
A slightly tart caffeine-free drink that is delicious both hot and iced.
Ingredients
- (recipe follows), chilled
- ½cup milk (dairy or nondairy)
Preparation
- in a glass that’s
- at least 12 ounces in capacity. Reserve.
- 2. Put the milk into a heatproof mug. Hold
- the mug in one hand and place under
- the steam wand so the bottom of the
- wand is just below the surface of the
- milk at an angle. Select the Steam
- function and press the START/STOP
- knob to start steaming. While holding
- the mug at an angle, allow the steam
- to move the milk around. Once the milk
- begins to increase in volume, lift the
- mug up higher so the steam wand
- immerses deeper into the milk (this will
- prevent large bubbles from forming and
- will make a nice fine milk foam). When
- the foam has almost reached the top
- of the mug and you can feel that the
- milk in the mug is quite hot, press the
- START/STOP knob to stop steaming.
- Tap the mug a few times to remove any
- larger bubbles.
- 3. Pour the steamed milk into the glass
- with the Hibiscus Syrup. Serve
- immediately.
