Cafe Latte
Author: Robert Sparkman
Lattes (or Caffe Lattes) are espresso drinks made with a fairly large amount of foamed milk. They are milkier than cappuccinos. In America, many lattes are prepared as flavored lattes.

Ingredients
- 1 shot espresso
- 2 shots foamed milk (or more)
- Optional: 1 shot of flavored simple syrup (preferably a popular latte flavor, or chocolate syrup or chocolate powder mixed into a paste with a little hot water)
Method
- Gather the ingredients.
- Pull your espresso shot in your latte cup and add a shot of flavored syrup for a flavored latte, if using.
- Using a spoon to retain the microbubbles on top of the steamed milk, pour the bottom 2/3 of the steamed milk from the steaming pitcher into the latte cup.
- Top the latte with the remaining bubbles. (You can spoon them onto your drink if desired.)
- If you'd like, feel free to add some latte art. Serve and enjoy!
- If you're a habitual latte drinker, investing in a basic espresso maker and learning to make lattes can save you an enormous amount of money each year.
