Ingredients

2 shots Brewed espresso
1 cup Whole milk
1 teaspoon Granulated sugar (optional, for sweetness)
0.25 teaspoon Ground cinnamon or cocoa powder (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Brew 2 shots of espresso using an espresso machine or stovetop espresso maker. Set aside.

Step 2

In a small saucepan, heat 1 cup of whole milk over medium heat until warm, but do not let it boil.

Step 3

Use a milk frother or immersion blender to froth the milk by aerating it until it doubles in volume and becomes creamy.

Step 4

If using sugar, stir 1 teaspoon of granulated sugar into the brewed espresso while it’s still hot, and mix well until dissolved.

Step 5

Pour the brewed espresso into a coffee cup or mug.

Step 6

Gently pour the frothed milk over the espresso, allowing the foam to settle on top for a layered appearance.

Step 7

If desired, sprinkle a pinch (about 1/4 teaspoon) of ground cinnamon or cocoa powder over the foam for garnish.

Step 8

Serve immediately and enjoy your homemade Better Homes Cappuccino!
