Make With Me- Vanilla Macchiato

Vanilla Macchiato

Ingredients:

• Espresso
• Milk
• Vanilla syrup or flavour

To make:

• Add vanilla syrup (2 teaspoons, as per the bottle of syrup I used) and steamed milk (directions below) to mug.
• Top milk with foam and add freshly brewed espresso through the foam.
• Enjoy!

Steamed milk:

• Pour 1/2 cup of milk in a 16 ounce glass jar.
• Cover jar and shake vigorously for 30-45 seconds. Milk should double in volume due to bubbles.
• Remove cover and place jar in microwave. Microwave 30-45 seconds
• Pour milk into prepared drink and spoon on the milk foam

Notes:

1. I use coffee (instant or regular, depending on my mood and how much time I have) as I don't know how to make espresso.
2. Any kind of milk can be used, including soy or almond. I have also used chocolate milk for a different flavour.
3. I have substituted vanilla syrup for caramel syrup. I have also down one teaspoon of vanilla and one teaspoon of caramel.
4. For steamed milk, I've used a cocktail shaker and then poured contents into a microwave safe container.
