The translation for the French term Café au Lait is “coffee with milk.” But really you might want to call it “coffee with creamy deliciousness.” This easy-to-make recipe is a great way to bring home a traditional coffeehouse favorite in minutes. Start with Seattle’s Best Coffee® Toasted Hazelnut or Very Vanilla and use 2% milk or a milk substitute of your choice. For best results, make this in your favorite mug and enjoy leisurely with a good book.

INGREDIENTS

Equipment Needed

  • Spoon
  • Mason Jars
  • Mug
  • Microwave
STEPS
Step 1
Pick your favorite flavor and brew up one full mug.
Step 2
While your coffee brews, fill a mason jar with 2% milk and shake, shake, shake. Shake vigorously for 15—30 seconds until the milk has doubled in volume.
Step 3
Remove the lid and microwave for approximately 10 seconds. Be sure to keep an eye on the milk to prevent it from spilling over in the microwave.
Step 4

Pour the frothed milk into your brewed Toasted Hazelnut or Very Vanilla Seattle’s Best Coffee®.

Step 5
Then spoon the froth over the top, and behold—Flavored Café au Lait!
