Equipment

  • espresso machine
  • Saucepan
  • Milk frother
  • coffee mug
  • whisk
  • Measuring cups

Ingredients
  

Hazelnut Coffee Base

  • 2 shots espresso freshly brewed
  • 1 cup milk whole or oat milk
  • 2 tablespoons hazelnut syrup adjust sweetness if needed
  • 0.5 teaspoon vanilla extract optional flavor
  • 1 tablespoon crushed hazelnuts optional garnish
  • 0.5 cup whipped cream optional topping

Instructions
 

  • Brew the espresso until rich and aromatic. Divide it evenly between two coffee mugs.
  • Heat the milk gently in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir in hazelnut syrup and vanilla extract.
  • Froth the warm hazelnut milk until creamy with soft bubbles. Avoid overheating for silky smooth texture.
  • Pour the hazelnut milk slowly into the espresso. Stir gently for balanced flavor throughout each cup.
  • Top with whipped cream and crushed hazelnuts if desired. Serve immediately while warm and frothy.

Notes

Use extra frothing for thicker foam or less whisking for smoother texture. Freeze leftover espresso into cubes for chilled coffee versions later. Pour milk slowly during assembly for prettier layers. Customize flavors with caramel, cinnamon, or chocolate. Store leftover hazelnut milk refrigerated for two days.
