teas.co.uk · 8 min · Serves 1

You'll need

• 1 Costa Maple Hazel Latte sachet (17g)
• 100ml freshly drawn water, brought to a rolling boil then left for 1 minute to drop to about 90C
• 150ml whole milk
• 1 generous swirl of squirty cream, for the top
• 1 teaspoon of warm maple syrup, for the drizzle
• 3 roasted hazelnuts, gently crushed, for the cream
• 1 short cinnamon stick (about 4cm), for the rim
• 1 warmed 350ml mug
• 1 small saucepan
• 1 small balloon whisk
• 1 small handheld milk frother

Method

1. Warm a mug with hot water and tip it out.
2. Empty the sachet into the mug, add 100ml of hot water at around 90C and whisk for thirty seconds into a strong base.
3. Warm the milk in a small pan until it just steams, then froth it into a thick foam.
4. Pour the milk over the back of a spoon so it settles on the coffee.
5. Top with cream, a drizzle of warm maple syrup, a scatter of crushed hazelnuts and a cinnamon stick on the rim.
6. Warm the maple syrup for a few seconds first; cold syrup seizes up the moment it hits the cool cream.
