Maple Hazelnut Latte

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 cooled to about 90C (check with a thermometer)
• 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

Method

1. Warm the maple latte mug, hot water in and 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.
