Prepare 2 shots of fresh espresso using an espresso machine or a stovetop espresso maker.
In a glass, combine the freshly brewed espresso and 2 tablespoons of sweetened condensed milk. Stir until well mixed.
Fill a large glass with 8 ice cubes. Pour the espresso and sweetened condensed milk mixture over the ice.
In a small saucepan over medium heat, warm the 1 cup of low-fat milk gently just until it begins to steam, but do not let it boil. Alternatively, you can microwave the milk in a microwave-safe container for about 1 minute.
Pour the warmed low-fat milk over the ice and espresso mixture in the glass.
Stir all the ingredients in the glass well to ensure thorough mixing and chill for a couple of minutes.
Sprinkle a pinch of ground cinnamon on top of the iced Spanish latte for added flavor and aroma.
Serve immediately with a straw or a spoon to stir as needed.
