Follow the manufacturer’s instructions to extract a rich, concentrated shot of espresso from your machine.
The secret to a luscious latte lies in perfectly frothed milk. If you have an espresso machine with a steam wand, place the wand just below the surface of the milk and turn it on.
Tilt the pitcher slightly to create a swirling motion. Continue steaming until the milk has doubled in volume and has a smooth, velvety texture.
Pour the espresso into a mug and add the syrup. Hold the milk pitcher at a slight angle and pour the frothed milk into the cup.
Top with a sprinkle of cinnamon, optional.

You could also swap out the milk for a milk alternative like oat milk or almond milk if you prefer.

If you don’t have a steam wand, you can heat the milk on the stovetop and whisk by hand or use a milk frother vigorously until it becomes frothy.
