Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 shots Espresso or strongly brewed coffee
- 1 cup Milk
- 2 tablespoons Irish cream liqueur
- 0.25 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
- 2 tablespoons Whipped cream
- 1 stick Cinnamon stick (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Brew two shots of espresso or make about 1/2 cup of very strong coffee. Set aside.
In a small saucepan, heat 1 cup of milk over medium-low heat until steaming. Do not let it boil.
Using a frother or whisk, froth the milk until it becomes light and foamy. Alternatively, pour the milk into a jar, seal it tightly, and shake vigorously until frothy.
In a large mug, combine the espresso, Irish cream liqueur, and ground cinnamon. Stir to combine.
Pour the steamed milk into the mug, holding back the foam with a spoon, and stir gently.
Spoon the milk foam on top of the latte, and then top with whipped cream.
If desired, garnish with a cinnamon stick for an elegant touch.
Serve immediately while hot and enjoy your Irish Cinnamon Latte!
