Ingredients

• 2 shots Espresso
• 1 cup Milk (any type: dairy, almond, or oat)

• 0.5 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.25 teaspoon Ground cardamom
• 1 pinch Cinnamon (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Brew 2 shots of espresso using an espresso machine or a stovetop espresso maker. Pour the espresso into a heat-resistant mug.

Step 2

In a small saucepan or milk frother, heat 1 cup of milk over medium heat, stirring frequently to prevent scorching. If using a frother, froth the milk to your desired level of foaminess.

Stir in 1 teaspoon of honey, 0.5 teaspoon of vanilla extract, and 0.25 teaspoon of ground cardamom into the milk until well combined.

Step 4

Carefully pour the steamed milk over the espresso, holding back the foam with a spoon if you prefer it layered on top.

Step 5

Gently spoon the foam onto the latte to create a creamy topping.

Step 6

For an optional finishing touch, sprinkle a pinch of cinnamon over the foam for added warmth and flavor.

Step 7

Serve immediately and enjoy your 'Latte with a Difference'!
