Best Grande Caffe Latte Recipes
HOW TO MAKE A CAFE LATTE
Steps:
- Gather the ingredients.
- Place the water into the boiler of your espresso machine.
- Put the coffee into the portafilter.
- Tamp (press) the coffee down using a tamper. Do this 2 to 3 times to make sure the grounds are packed tightly.
- Place the portafilter into your espresso machine's group head and lock it in place by turning it to the right.
- Place a latte cup (or the glass carafe that came with your espresso machine) under the group head and pull the shot for 25 to 30 seconds. (Typically, there is a lever, switch, or button to start this process.)
- Once the shot is pulled , add the flavored syrup, if using.
- Place the milk into either a glass measuring cup or a small metal pitcher.
- Insert the steam wand into the container with the milk, just under the surface.
- Engage the steam wand on your espresso machine. (You may need to read your espresso machine's manual for this, as each espresso maker is a little different.)
- Make sure to keep the tip of the wand toward the side of the container. This will create a vortex with the milk.
- Move the container higher, lower, closer, then further so that the steam wand can incorporate the air into the milk, making the foam. The bubbles should get smaller and smaller as you do this.
- Once the milk has foamed to double its size, turn off the steam wand.
- Use a spoon to retain the microbubbles on top of the steamed milk and pour the bottom 2/3 of the steamed milk into the latte cup.
- Top the latte with the remaining bubbles by pouring or spooning them onto the drink.
- Serve and enjoy.

Steps:
- Combine the espresso, flavored simple syrup, and milk in a small pitcher. Fill each of the mason jars with crushed ice. Pour the latte mixture over the ice and serve immediately.
- In a saucepan combine water, sugar, and cinnamon sticks over medium heat. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes, until the sugar has dissolved. Take the pan off the heat and cool the syrup. Any extra cooled syrup can be saved in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
EGGNOG LATTE
