Notes

Step-by-step instructions

  • Before you start, gather the ingredients. Yes, I have made the mistake of assuming I had enough oat milk. Plus make sure you have the equipment you will need.
  • Brew a shot of espresso with the coffee maker you have available. It's not a problem if you don't have an espresso machine, check out How to make espresso without a machine.
  • Slowly heat the oat milk in a small pot until it's hot but not boiling. Aim for around 140-145°F (60-63°C). But remember: don't let the temperature go over 149°F (65°C) because above that heat oat milk starts to break down and won't be good.
  • froth the heated milk with the tools you have available I enjoy using a hand blender, its less work than a hand whisk.
  • Pour the espresso into a latte glass or an 8-ounce coffee mug.
  • Add 1 - 2 teaspoons of sugar to taste (optional).
  • Slowly add the heated oat milk to the mug, keeping back the foam to layer on top. If you are feeling brave, try your hand at some latte art. Remember, practice makes perfect.
  • For some added luxury, sprinkle some chocolate powder over the foamed milk.
  • Serve hot and enjoy!
