How to make an awesome Caffe Latte

Being semi-Italian, I am exposed to a world of tasty things. One of the tastiest and my favourite is Caffe Latte.


This is how I make it.

What you'll need:

A mug
A microwave
Milk
Sugar
A coffee/espresso machine of sorts or instant coffee


Instructions:


Fill your mug with milk, full cream works best and is tastier than any other milk. Make sure to leave enough space for a single (or double) espresso should you be using espresso. Otherwise fill it up if you're using instant coffee.


Milk – Into mug


Place your mug of milk into the microwave for about  one and a half minutes. It needs to be piping hot to reach your desired result, but keep an eye on it so it doesn't boil over.


Milk – Into microwave


Once your milk has been heated, add your desired amount of sugar. In my case, three. Stir vigorously. 
If you are using instant coffee, this would be the time to drop it in. Once you have stirred up your instant coffeee and sugar you're good to go!


Sugar – Into milk


Now comes the fun part. I use a Nespresso machine, which rules the world. Keep stirring the milk while the coffee is being filtered into your mug. You'll see it change colour and become tasty.


Coffee – Into milk
Once the coffee is done filtering you can stop stirring... You will then have a creamy, frothy caffe latte. It's a winner for movie nights with your better half and just in general. Enjoy.


Caffe Latte


Until next time.
