Notes
Make sure you brew the coffee to be strong. Either use an espresso bean if brewing or double the amount of granules if using an instant.Use a high fat milk if you want a thick creamy latte, but use a lower fat milk to keep calories down.Make the milk hot enough to dissolve the sugar. If granules remain in the milk, microwave another 15 minutes.
