PKMN & a latte

Morning ⛅️ Cirrus is keeping me company as I work on these Hurricane Helpers. I like the idea that he likes making coffee with me (I always thought Minccino / Cinccino sounds like a coffee drink lol)

I was talking with a friend about making lattes at home without any barista equipment, so I thought I’d share what I do here: all you’ll need is your microwave & a tea whisk (I have a metal one, so I can’t say how a bamboo one would be different)

Make your coffee (stir in any sugar or sweeteners here so it can dissolve).

Warm up your milk for 1 min or until steaming (1 cup of milk takes about 1 min)

Whisk the milk until you get smooth foam (you want to keep going until the bubbles smooth out, about 1 min)

Slowly pour the milk over your coffee.

& there you go - easy latte! Probably won’t make any fancy latte art with this method (I mostly just make clouds lol ☁️), but it works! If you want to take it a step up, you can add things like cinnamon, cocoa powder, or my favorite, lavender (just steep the lavender at step 1 for 4 min & strain). Have fun! ☕️

PS: be sure to pick a milk or plant milk that has some fat content in it - you don’t need to get cream or whole milk, but if you try with something non-fat, it may not foam (I heard oatmilk & soy milk make pretty good foam for plant milks 🌱)
