Notes
- The foam on top of this recipe comes from machine-brewed espresso. If you use strong drip coffee instead and want the foam on top, you'll need to add an egg white or a few drops of a cocktail foamer.
- To make simple syrup, heat 1 tablespoon of sugar with 2 tablespoons of water until the sugar dissolves. For the sugar, you can use granulated sugar, honey, or maple syrup.
