CAFé AU LAIT

A coffee that's both simply delicious, and deliciously simple to make. It's a Starbucks® staple, but we call it a Café Misto.

Time 2m

Yield 1 Servings

Number Of Ingredients 2

2 Parts Freshly Brewed Coffee
1 Part Milk of Your Choice

Steps:

  • We recommend Caffé Verona™ Ground Coffees for this recipe.
  • Quick lifehack: you can use your French Press as a milk frother (once you've poured the coffee out, of course).
  • Don't fill the mug all the way - about ¾ full. You've got to leave space for the froth, you know? The froth's important.

  • Sweeten your café au lait with sugar, honey, or flavored syrup to taste.
