I Can Make an Awesome Latte!



I used to own a coffehouse in Miami called The Warehouse Cafe. 
While we switch from one Social Media category to the next
I'll add a much needed coffee receipe break and picture!

How I made this Latte:

1. Always make sure to have 2% or light milk - it froths better
2. Make sure the milk is COLD
3. Keep the STEEL frothing pitcher in the fridge so it also is cold
4. Use your favorite espresso (today I used PILON) because I live a long time and am still a fand of Cuban coffee
5. I have a Via Venezia from Starbucks Cappuccino maker and it does the trick
6. I add the espresso pressing it in pretty hard - enough to make two shots (I like it strong)
7. I steam my milk - emptying the shaft of water first - some machines you have to.  Keep the steamer down at the bottom at first and then bring it towards the top.  Spinning the milk is a kiss of death for the froth.  Don't do that. 
8. I tap the froth container making sure my froth is nice and strong once it is finished.
9. Pour your milk in about 1/2 way.
10. Spoon in your froth.
11. Lightly pour in your espresso.  It helps if you have a mini milking frother because there is a ledge to pour from - not a sloppy pour.  A sloppy pour of espresso won't layer.

Yummy!

I tell you what, going from having a store-front operation to an online company that you can promote with many online Social Media outlets for free blows me away!  I'm very excited.  Please visit and subscribe to this blog and visit my new one at www.SocialMediaGoneWILD.com !
