Did you know? To prepare a latte, you first need to determine the type of coffee. All varieties consist of two types of coffee beans - arabica and robusta. Arabica has a sweet taste, and robusta is more bitter. Producers or sellers, mixing ground grains, get amazing tastes. But for making latte, the best choice would be 100% arabica.
Step cooking
- We send 5 teaspoons of aromatic ground coffee to a French press.
- Add to it 150 ml of boiling water. After a minute, we can add sugar to taste, mix well to completely melt it.
- Pour 300 ml of milk into a stewpan with a thick bottom, send to the fire, no need to bring to a boil. You can take milk of any fat content, the main thing is that it has a pleasant smell and is fresh. But remember that the higher the fat content of milk, the more nutritious the finished drink will be.
- Pour the warmed milk into an empty clean French press. Whip it into foam.
- Pour milk into an irish glass.
- We add coffee to it very slowly to get a milk and coffee layer. If you do not have an irish glass, you can use any other at your discretion.
- A cap of foam will remain on top, sprinkle it with a pinch of cinnamon and use a toothpick to make beautiful stains. This will serve as a decor for the drink. Serve with a straw to a sweet dessert.
