Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, let’s make the pistachio cream. In a bowl, pour 60g of cold heavy whipping cream. Using chilled cream will help you achieve a beautifully whipped texture.
Step 2
Next, add 20g of high-quality pistachio puree to the cream. This is where the rich pistachio flavor comes from, elevating your latte to a gourmet level.
Step 3
Add 10g of sugar to sweeten. Using a mini electric whisk, whip the mixture for about 1-2 minutes until it becomes soft and creamy. Aim for a consistency that’s not too stiff, so it blends well into the latte.
Step 4
Now, prepare your serving glass. Fill the glass about 70% full with ice cubes. Plenty of ice will keep your drink refreshingly cold.
Step 5
Gently pour 110ml of fresh milk over the ice. Pour slowly to create a beautiful layered effect.
Step 6
It’s time to add the coffee! Brew 2 shots of rich espresso. The aromatic steam from freshly brewed espresso will add depth to your latte.
Step 7
Carefully pour the freshly brewed espresso over the milk. Admire the distinct layers. Then, gently spoon the luscious pistachio cream mixture over the espresso. Allow it to cascade slightly for a stunning presentation.
Step 8
Finally, let’s garnish! Finely chop some pistachios and sprinkle them over the cream. This adds a delightful crunch and visual appeal.
Step 9
Your delicious Pistachio Cream Latte is complete! Enjoy the wonderful harmony of smooth cream, bold espresso, and nutty pistachios. It’s a perfect treat!
