Ingredients
  

1 cup freshly brewed espresso

2 tablespoons brown sugar (light or dark)

1 tablespoon vanilla extract

1/2 cup heavy cream

1/2 cup milk (whole or any preferred alternative)

1 tablespoon cocoa powder (for garnish)

A sprinkle of sea salt (for garnish)

Whipped cream (optional, for topping)

Instructions
 

Start by brewing a strong cup of espresso using your espresso machine or stovetop espresso maker. Set it aside to cool slightly.

    In a small saucepan, combine the heavy cream, milk, brown sugar, and vanilla extract. Heat over medium-low heat, stirring continuously until the mixture is warm and the sugar has fully dissolved (do not let it boil).

      Once the mixture is warmed, use a hand whisk or milk frother to froth it until it is light and airy. If you don't have either, simply whisk vigorously by hand until you achieve a foamy consistency.

        In a serving glass or mug, pour the brewed espresso, followed by the frothy cream and milk mixture.

          Dust the top with cocoa powder for a touch of elegance, and add a sprinkle of sea salt to enhance the flavors. If you like, top with whipped cream for an extra indulgent treat.

            Serve immediately while still hot, and enjoy the delightful contrast of flavors!
