Chef's tip
Which milk to use to make a latte ?
The choice of milk is crucial to the success of a delicious latte. Choose whole milk for its creamy texture and stable foam. Its fat content (around 3.5%) promotes the creamy microfoam essential to latte art.
Plant-based alternatives offer interesting options :
- Oat milk, appreciated for its natural sweetness
- Soy milk, rich in protein, ensures a dense mousse
- Light almond milk adds a subtle note.
The milk heating temperature plays a key role : aim for 60-65°C to preserve the coffee aromas and the velvety texture of your latte. Experiment with different types of milk to find the one that goes best with your favorite coffee beans.
Now that your drink is ready, you can vary the pleasures according to the season, by choosing the iced or iced coffee option.
