So I have been really into drinking lattes lately, but I am TERRIBLE at making them at home. I use my Keurig in the morning and my coffee just seems super diluted no matter what I try. I hate spending at LEAST $4 for coffee at a coffee shop (even if they do offer deals on numbers of purchases), so I figured there had to be an easier way of making them at home. After several failed attempts, I came across this video which actually seemed to work for me! So I figured I'd pass along this link in case anyone wants to try it too.
First of all, I had to pull out my actual coffee maker...not my Keurig. And I had to double the recipe so that I could fill Tervis cup (and it's a smaller one!). My first attempt at this, I had one cup worth of a latte...yeah, I drink way more than a small/tall!
My next job/step is to learn how to add the cute latte art! :)
4 tbsp ground coffee
10 oz water
1 cup milk
And I definitely needed 3-4 packets of stevia. But I like my coffee a bit sweet
You will also need a glass jar with a lid.
Brew the 4 tbsp of ground coffee with 10 oz of water.
While that is brewing, place 1 cup of milk in a glass jar and microwave on high for 30 seconds.
Remove the jar from the microwave and put the lid on the jar. Shake vigorously for 30-60 seconds.
Remove the lid and continue heating the milk for an additional 30 seconds. Watch closely so that it doesn't bubble over.
Pour your brewed coffee into a large mug (my Tervis is a 16 oz one!). Add desired sweetener, and then add the warmed milk and foam.
