Let’s Make a Latte!

A friend recently opened his own coffee shop and very quickly discovered that there's a whole art to making the perfect cup.

Every good coffee needs a beautiful coffee table.

You'll need a suitable cup, saucer, and (preferably cute & tiny) spoon.

This is a fancy grinder, but any blender will do.

Pack the espresso into a firm puck.

An ideal brew is around 26 seconds. Too short and it will taste bitter, too long and it will taste burnt.

Whole milk works best because its higher fat content taste better.

Work efficiently and steam the milk while the espresso is brewing.

Pour the freshly brewed espresso into the cup and then carefully add the milk.

Add some garnish such a cocoa powder and voila, a beautiful latte!
