- Stir French vanilla syrup into the espresso until fully dissolved.
- Steam milk to 140–150°F (60–66°C) with fine microfoam, then pour over the espresso and syrup mixture. Serve immediately.
Tips
- Use a milk frother or steam wand to create fine microfoam for a smoother texture. Substitute whole milk with oat milk for a dairy-free option.
