The first time I tasted a red velvet latte was at Bitter+Sweet, a small but very good cafe in Cupertino. My friends and I keep going back to this place, because the coffee is that good. So if you're ever in the neighborhood, do stop by, you won't regret it.
I have been wanting to create the same latte at home, and finally I found the right mix to create the same perfect red velvet latte. I could do some reverse engineering and figure out what goes into the red velvet mix, but for now I'm happy with buying it. Sometimes you need an easy way out.
Ingredients:
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 2 tablespoons Cappuccine Red Velvet Frappe mix
- 1-2 espresso shots
- steamed milk (whole milk gives the best texture)
Directions
Heat the cup with some really hot water.
Whisk the red velvet mix with some steamed milk in the heated cup. Add the espresso shot(s) to the mix. Finally add more steamed milk and some milk foam.
Enjoy!
