LATTES

A "non Italian" caffè latte is typically prepared with approximately 1/3 expresso and 2/3 steamed milk, with a layer of foamed milk approximately 5 mm (¼ inch) thick on the top.

 

A caffè latte may also be served consisting of strong or bold coffee (sometimes espresso) mixed with scalded milk in approximately a 1:1 ratio. The drink is similar to a cappucino, the difference being that a cappuccino consists of 1/3 espresso, 1/3 steamed milk and 1/3 foam.

 

A variant on the latte is the flat white, which is served in a smaller ceramic cup with the creamy steamed milk poured over a single-shot of espresso, holding back the lighter froth at the top.
