β Vanilla Latte Recipe (Easy Home Method)
π§Ύ Ingredients
1 cup milk (full cream or any plant-based milk)
1 shot espresso (or Β½ cup strong coffee)
1β2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1β2 teaspoons sugar or sweetener (optional)
A pinch of cinnamon (optional, for extra flavour)
π₯ Step-by-Step Method
1. Brew your coffee
Prepare a fresh espresso shot. If you donβt have an espresso machine, use strong instant coffee or a French press.
2. Heat the milk
Warm the milk in a pan or microwave. Donβt boil it, just heat until hot.
3. Froth the milk
Use a milk frother, whisk, or shake it in a jar until it becomes creamy and slightly foamy.
4. Add vanilla flavour
Stir the vanilla extract and sugar into your coffee while itβs still hot. This helps blend the flavour well.
5. Combine everything
Pour the hot milk slowly into the coffee. Add foam on top for that cafΓ©-style look.
β¨ Pro Tips for Better Taste
Use freshly brewed coffee for richer flavour
Add honey or maple syrup instead of sugar for a smoother taste
Sprinkle cinnamon or cocoa powder on top for a premium feel
Use oat milk or almond milk for a lighter version
