Ingredients

Steps

  1. Pull the espresso and use it hot; shaking hot espresso with ice is what builds the foam — cold shots won’t froth.
  2. Add syrup and a full tray of ice to a shaker or mason jar — more ice than you think, half-melted ice waters it down.
  3. Shake hard for 15 seconds until the vessel frosts; that foam cap is the whole drink.
  4. Strain over fresh ice and top with cold milk poured slowly so it marbles through the crema.
  5. Dust with cinnamon and drink fast; the foam waits for no one.
