Steps in Making Simple Maple Latte

  1. Heat milk in a small/medium saucepan over medium heat using your microwave for about one minute. Let it get hot to touch but not to boiling point. Alternatively, heat the milk in your microwave in short increments of about 15 seconds. You can also use an espresso machine.
  2. Once hot, remove from the microwave and vigorously whisk it for about 30 to 60 seconds until it turns foamy.
  3. Pour 1/3 cup espresso (or strong brewed coffee) and 2-3 of maple syrup or depending upon desired latte sweetness, in each cup. Top each cup with the frothed milk.
  4. Add the maple whipped cream and if desired, sprinkle some cinnamon.

If you don’t own a milk frother and want to make it look frother, the trick is easy – simply pour the milk into a suitable jar and use your microwave to heat until its warm (not very hot). Remove and screw the jar lid tightly. After that, give the jar a couple of vigorous shakes, until your milk becomes foamy.

Be careful when opening the jar because sometimes due to a build-up of pressure, the milk could spray out when the jar is opened. Pour this into the coffee and you can now enjoy a homemade Maple Latte without having to invest in expensive coffee making or frother machines. Alternatively, consider using an immersion blender or the simple whisk to froth when an espresso machine is not available.
