How to make Piccolo coffee?

Heading to local coffee shops that offer a piccolo latte isn’t always viable. Better to make it at home with the equipment below:

Equipment

  • 1 coffee maker
  • 1 Demitasse glass if you’re feeling fancy, otherwise a normal cup will do

Ingredients
  

  • 20 grams dark roast coffee beans same amount as a normal espresso shot
  • 1 oz. filtered water
  • 2 oz. milk or non-dairy alternative

Instructions
 

  • Add the ground coffee to the machine.
  • Tamp it as you would with an espresso shot
  • Pull the shot for only 20 seconds and pour it into a cup
  • Froth your chosen milk for 30-60 seconds and pour over the Ristretto shot

Notes

Piccolo latte consists of a single ristretto shot (one part) and two parts of frothed milk.
