  • 1 tsp cinnamon half for milk, half for garnish
  • 1 heaping dollop of whipped cream optional

Equipment

  • Waco Nanopresso Portable Espresso Maker optional

Method
 

  1. Brew espresso and set aside in a mug. Add the vanilla coffee syrup.
  2. Add almond milk and 1/2 tsp cinnamon to a small pot and heat on high for 2-4 minutes, then froth using handheld milk frother. Be very careful of splashing!
  3. Pour frothed milk carefully into mug over a spoon so that it layers on top of espresso.
  4. Add whipped cream. (optional step)
  5. Sprinkle remaining cinnamon on top. Enjoy!

Notes

  • If you like a sweeter drink, add desired amount of sugar (or stevia) to espresso/syrup mixture.
  • Don't have any cinnamon on hand? Try using a cinnamon flavoured syrup instead. Recommended: Torani Sugar-Free Brown Sugar Cinnamon Syrup
