Method
 

  1. Brew a strong espresso shot using an espresso machine or Moka pot
  2. Warm 175ml milk in a saucepan over medium heat (do not boil)
  3. Heat milk to 140-150°F (60-65°C) using a French press for frothing

  5. Sprinkle 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon into the coffee

Notes

Use whole milk for the creamiest texture
Adjust vanilla syrup to taste; sugar-free alternatives work
Frothing with a French press creates velvety foam
Non-dairy milk/whipped cream suitable for vegan versions
Freshly ground cinnamon yields the best aroma
