Frothed milk is a versatile dairy product made by aerating milk through steaming or whisking, creating a light, creamy foam. Widely popular in European coffee culture, particularly in Italian cuisine, it serves as a prized topping for beverages like cappuccinos and lattes. The process often uses cow’s milk, though alternatives like almond, soy, or oat milk cater to dietary preferences. Nutritionally, frothed milk is a source of protein, calcium, and vitamins such as B12 and D, all essential for bone health and energy production. However, its calorie and fat content can vary depending on the type of milk used, with whole milk being higher in both compared to skim or plant-based options. While generally healthy in moderation, pairing frothed milk with sugary syrups or pastries may contribute to an excess intake of sugar and calories. It’s a delicious way to add texture and richness to your favorite hot drinks.
