Mocha Latte Recipe

For the chocolate, and whisky (optional) lover!

Time needed - 10 minutes

Tools needed:

• Stirring device (spoon, straw, your finger, etc).
• Espresso machine
• Coffee Grinder

What we can't stand about most Mocha Latte recipes is the fact that they simply use heated half-and-half and call it a "latte". A latte, by definition, requires steamed milk, not lazily heated milk in a sauce pan. You don't walk into Starbucks, order up a latte and get heated milk. No, you get steamed milk. Let's do this right!

Ingredients

• Steamed milk (any milk will do)
• 2 tablespoons brown sugar
• 1/4 cup whisky (optional)
• 2 shots espresso
• 1/4 cup chocolate syrup (or melted chocolate)
• 1 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

1. Steam your milk using your milk steamer/espresso machine. 
2. Brew your espresso shots using your espresso machine
3. Add espresso to cup.
4. Stir in brown sugar and rest of ingredients including whisky if you want.
5. Add your steamed milk
6. Serve warm (on a cold day)
7. Serve cold, over ice (on a hot day)
