Instructions
- 1
Brew 2 shots of espresso (about 2 oz total) into a large mug.
- 2
Steam 1 cup of milk until it is hot and frothy, with small bubbles, about 140°F. If you don't have a steamer, heat the milk in a saucepan and whisk vigorously until frothy.
- 3
Pour the steamed milk into the mug, holding back the foam with a spoon. Then spoon the foam on top.
- 4
To make a heart, pour a small stream of milk from a height into the center of the foam, then lower the pitcher and push forward to create the point. If it doesn't work, just enjoy the latte!
