Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 shots Espresso or strong brewed coffee
- 1 cup Whole milk (or milk of choice)
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 2 teaspoons Sugar (or sweetener of choice)
- 2 tablespoons Whipped cream
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground cinnamon or cocoa powder (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Brew 2 shots of espresso or 1/2 cup of strong coffee and set it aside.
In a small saucepan, heat the milk over medium-low heat until warm and steamy, but not boiling (approximately 3-4 minutes). Alternatively, warm the milk in a microwave-safe container for 1-2 minutes.
Whisk the heated milk briskly or froth it using a milk frother until it becomes creamy and slightly foamy.
In a large coffee mug, stir together the espresso, vanilla extract, and sugar until the sugar dissolves completely.
Pour the frothed milk over the espresso mixture, holding back the foam with a spoon to pour only the liquid initially, then spooning the foam on top.
Top with a generous dollop of whipped cream for an extra indulgence.
If desired, sprinkle a pinch of ground cinnamon or cocoa powder over the whipped cream for garnish.
Serve immediately and enjoy your sinfully delightful Vanilla Sin Latte!
