A café latte, or “latte” for short, is an espresso based drink with steamed milk and micro-foam added to the coffee. This coffee is much sweeter compared to an espresso due to the steamed milk. It is made as follows:

• Extract 1 shot of espresso into a tumbler glass
• Add steamed milk
• 1cm of micro-foam on top of the steamed milk

Barista Tip: In the USA it is common to use a cup instead of a tumbler glass for a latte.
