Latte Base
Step-by-Step Procedure
Phase 1: Flavor Base & Extraction
In your serving glass, combine 1 drizzle honey, 1 pinch flaky sea salt, 1 tbsp sweetened condensed milk, and 1 dash cinnamon.
Brew the Nespresso Vertuo pod directly into the glass over the syrups and spices. Stir or whisk with a handheld frother for 10 seconds until completely dissolved.
Phase 2: Ice & Milk Pour
Fill the glass with plenty of ice cubes.
Pour 3/4 cup oat milk over the ice; stir gently to combine and watch the layers swirl.
Pour espresso directly over ice to preserve the temperature boundary and prevent watery dilution.
