Notes
- You can adjust the amount of espresso to make the coffee stronger or milder according to taste.
- For a vegan version, substitute the milk with almond, soy, or oat milk and use vegan whipped cream.
- Stir gently after adding the milk mixture to blend flavors if you prefer uniform taste over layered effect.
- Speculoos spread can be found in specialty stores or online; it gives this latte its characteristic spiced cookie flavor.
