Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 shots espresso
- 1 tablespoon hazelnut syrup
- 240 milliliters whole milk
- 2 tablespoons whipped cream
- 1 teaspoon crushed hazelnuts
Instructions
Brew 2 shots of espresso using an espresso machine or an alternative brewing method if desired.
In a small saucepan, heat 240 milliliters of whole milk over medium heat until it is hot but not boiling, about 3-4 minutes.
Once the milk is hot, froth it using a milk frother or by whisking vigorously until it becomes creamy and frothy.
In a large coffee mug, add 1 tablespoon of hazelnut syrup.
Pour the freshly brewed espresso into the mug with the hazelnut syrup and stir well to combine.
Slowly pour the frothed milk over the espresso and syrup mixture, holding back the foam with a spoon to pour the liquid first, then topping with foam.
Optionally, top the hazelnut latte with 2 tablespoons of whipped cream for extra richness.
Garnish with 1 teaspoon of crushed hazelnuts to add texture and enhance the nutty flavor.
Serve immediately and enjoy your homemade Hazelnut Latte!
