Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup brewed espresso or strong coffee
- 1 cup milk (whole, skim, or your favorite non-dairy alternative)
- 2 tablespoons sugar (adjust to taste)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon cocoa powder (for dusting)
- 1 tablespoon coffee liqueur (optional, for an adult version)
- Whipped cream (for topping)
- Chocolate shavings or cocoa powder (for garnish)
Instructions
- Brew your espresso or strong coffee. If using an espresso machine, pull a double shot (about 2 ounces). Alternatively, use a French press or stovetop Moka pot for strong coffee. Set aside to cool slightly.
- In a small saucepan, combine the milk and sugar. Heat over medium, stirring occasionally, until warm but not boiling. If you have a milk frother, froth the milk until light and airy. If not, whisk vigorously or shake in a jar until frothy.
- In a large mug or glass, pour in the brewed espresso. If using coffee liqueur, add it now. Slowly pour the warm milk into the mug, holding back the foam with a spoon, then spoon the foam on top. Add the vanilla extract and stir gently.
- Top with a generous dollop of whipped cream. Dust with cocoa powder using a fine mesh sieve and sprinkle chocolate shavings on top. Optionally, drizzle chocolate syrup over the whipped cream.
- Serve immediately while warm. Pair with a small piece of tiramisu or a biscotti for a delightful treat. Enjoy your homemade Tiramisu Latte!
