Alternatively known as a latte, this sweet drink is made using steamed milk, a shot of espresso and micro foam. The steamed milk creates a sweetness in the drink that offsets the harshness of the espresso shot. In the US, lattes are generally served in cups but in other countries, they are generally served in tumbler glasses. This is not to be confused with a piccolo latte which is a latte made in an espresso cup. Interestingly, in Italy, lattes are almost always made at home on the stove and consumed primarily for breakfast. Iced versions are created by using chilled espresso and chilled milk instead of steamed milk and foam.
