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.

Serves 1

Ingredients

Ice cubes
as needed
Cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon
Orange zest
1 tablespoon
Honey
1 tablespoon (adjust to taste)
Milk
1 cup (whole or any preferred type)
Espresso
1 shot (about 1 ounce)

Instructions

  1. Begin by brewing a shot of espresso using your preferred method. Set it aside to allow the flavors to develop.
  2. In a small saucepan, heat the milk over medium heat until it is hot but not boiling, stirring occasionally to prevent scalding.
  3. Once the milk is heated, remove it from the heat and whisk in the honey, orange zest, and cinnamon until fully combined and smooth.
  4. Transfer the hot milk mixture to a blender. Blend on high speed for about 1 minute, or until the mixture is frothy and creamy.
  5. Take a tall glass and fill it with ice cubes to chill your drink.
  6. Pour the frothy milk mixture over the ice cubes, allowing it to cool slightly.
  7. Slowly pour the shot of espresso over the frothy milk, creating a beautiful layered effect. The espresso should gently sink through the milk.
  8. 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.
  9. 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.
