Barcelona Breeze Latte
Transport yourself to the sun-soaked streets of Barcelona with this enchanting Barcelona Breeze Latte. This delightful concoction features rich espresso harmoniously blended with velvety milk, infused with the vibrant notes of zesty orange and a hint of warm cinnamon. The natural sweetness of honey ties all the flavors together, creating a refreshing and aromatic beverage that is perfect for sipping on a warm afternoon or enjoying as a cozy morning treat. Inspired by the lively café culture of Spain, this latte embodies the essence of leisurely afternoons spent in charming plazas, making every sip a mini-vacation.
Instructions
- Begin by brewing a shot of espresso using your preferred method. Set it aside to allow the flavors to develop.
- In a small saucepan, heat the milk over medium heat until it is hot but not boiling, stirring occasionally to prevent scalding.
- Once the milk is heated, remove it from the heat and whisk in the honey, orange zest, and cinnamon until fully combined and smooth.
- Transfer the hot milk mixture to a blender. Blend on high speed for about 1 minute, or until the mixture is frothy and creamy.
- Take a tall glass and fill it with ice cubes to chill your drink.
- Pour the frothy milk mixture over the ice cubes, allowing it to cool slightly.
- Slowly pour the shot of espresso over the frothy milk, creating a beautiful layered effect. The espresso should gently sink through the milk.
- Gently stir the latte to combine the flavors, but be careful not to disturb the foam too much; you want to retain that lovely frothy top.
- Serve immediately and enjoy the refreshing taste of Barcelona with each sip!
Tips
- For an extra touch of flavor, consider adding a splash of vanilla extract to the milk mixture.
- If you prefer a dairy-free option, almond or oat milk works wonderfully as a substitute.
- For a stronger orange flavor, you can infuse the milk with a few slices of fresh orange while heating it.
