A traditional Cortado, balancing the intensity of espresso with the sweetness of steamed milk, creating a smooth and harmonious coffee beverage.

Ingredients

Servings1
  • Espresso1 shot (approx. 30ml)
  • Steamed Milk1 shot (approx. 30ml)

  • Small glass tumbler1

Steps

  1. 1

    Brew a single shot of espresso directly into a small glass tumbler.

  2. 2

    Steam milk until it has a velvety texture with minimal foam. The goal is to warm the milk and create a smooth microfoam, not stiff foam.

  3. 3

    Gently pour the steamed milk into the espresso, aiming for a 1:1 ratio. The milk should cut through the acidity of the espresso.

  4. 4

    Serve immediately.
