Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Let’s start by preparing the luscious cream topping. In a clean bowl, combine the chilled heavy whipping cream (60g) and granulated sugar (10g). You can adjust the sugar amount based on your sweetness preference.
Step 2
Using a mini whisk or an electric mixer, whip the cream until it forms soft peaks. Be careful not to over-whip; the goal is a smooth, luscious texture that will beautifully crown your latte.
Step 3
Now, take your favorite glass. Using a spoon or spatula, spread a generous amount of Lotus spread along the inner sides of the glass. This not only adds a wonderful layer of Lotus flavor but also makes the drink visually appealing.
Step 4
Fill the prepared glass about 60-70% full with ice cubes. The ice will keep your latte refreshingly cold and help the coffee and milk blend well.
Step 5
Pour the cold milk (110-120ml) over the ice. Feel free to use your favorite kind of milk, whether it’s whole, skim, or even a plant-based alternative.
Step 6
Next, add the Macadamia syrup (7g) to the milk. This syrup will enhance the drink with a delightful nutty sweetness.
Step 7
Now for the star of the show: the espresso! Gently pour the two freshly brewed shots of espresso over the ice. The rich coffee flavor will beautifully complement the sweet cream and Lotus notes.
Step 8
Carefully spoon the whipped cream mixture on top of the espresso, creating a beautiful creamy layer.
Step 9
Finally, take one Lotus biscuit, crush it into small pieces, and sprinkle it generously over the cream. The crunchy biscuit bits add a delightful texture and an extra burst of Lotus flavor.
Step 10
And there you have it – your homemade Lotus Cream Latte is ready! Enjoy this delicious and beautiful creation that’s perfect for any time of day. Cheers!
