The Key to Amazing Coffee Drinks: Steam and Froth Your Milk at Home

If you are looking to take the tea and coffee beverages you make at home to the next level, steaming and frothing your milk or cream will give your lattes a cafe like quality. With this method, you won’t need fancy barista equipment like a steamer equipped espresso machine. Why pay five or more dollars and wait in line at a coffee shop for a cappuccino or latte when you can make these delicious drinks from the comfort of your own home?

This is such a simple step to make your coffee drinks even more amazing, you’ll be wondering why you haven’t been doing this for years.

All you have to do is warm the milk on the stove over medium low heat, until you begin to see vapors of steam. Then move the milk into a heat safe bowl and beat with an electric mixer using the whisk attachment until the desired amount of frothiness is achieved.

If you don’t have an electric mixer, no worries, you can use a hand whisk, but it may produce less froth. You can also place the warmed milk in the bottom of a clean french press and rapidly twirl and pump the plunger.

There you have it! Now go forth and make yummy, energizing, creamy drinks!
