Ingredients
2 shots (2 oz) hot, fresh brewed espresso or strong coffee
1-1.5 oz cinnamon dolce syrup
1 ¼ cup 2% milk (or dairy-free alternative)
¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon and sugar mixture
Whipped cream (optional, for topping)
Instructions
Brew the espresso or strong coffee directly into a heat-proof glass.
Stir the cinnamon dolce syrup into the hot espresso until fully combined.
Steam 1 cup of 2% milk on the stovetop or in the microwave until hot.
Froth the remaining ¼ cup of 2% milk using an electric frother or handheld whisk until thick foam forms.
Pour the steamed milk into the glass containing the espresso mixture.
Top the drink with the frothed milk to fill the glass.
Add a dollop of whipped cream and sprinkle with the cinnamon and sugar mixture.
Notes
You can make your own cinnamon dolce syrup by boiling equal parts water and brown sugar with a cinnamon stick. Use a mason jar to shake the milk vigorously if you do not have a dedicated frother. For a dairy-free version, oat milk works exceptionally well for steaming and frothing due to its creaminess.
