Ingredients:

• 1 shot of decaffeinated espresso (or ½ cup of strong brewed decaf)

Your favourite mug

Method:

Warm the milk: Heat the milk in a separate pan until steaming, but don’t let it boil.

Combine: Pour the brewed coffee into your mug. Stir in the chocolate mixture until well blended.

Froth and pour: Froth the warm milk (using a whisk or frother), then pour it gently into the mug.

Finish: Top with whipped cream and a sprinkle of chocolate or cocoa powder if you’re feeling fancy.
