as a modification,

put milk in glass first and mix mocha
spoon foam (from steamed milk) on top
slowly pour espresso onto foam. if all went well it is now a layered mocha

serve in a clear mug/glass, charge $4.50 since now it is artsy

You are awesome. Thanks a lot!

Is there a way to steam the milk without needing a special machine to do so?

edmos1

there are some other things that can be done, but will not turn out the same. as far as frothing, or getting foam indicative of a Late or Capucinno, it can only be done with cold milk, a hand wand blender at the surface will do this. Also the milk can be heated up in the microwave, however the total effect is not quite the same. I have not tried frothing milk with a blender and then heating in the microwave, might be a two step process?

Thanks, sounds good. Too bad its late and the coffee shops are closed. ( Don't have an espresso machine yet )

I was wondering about the Hershey's syrup, thank's for confirming that it is functionally equivalent to the syrup in coffee bars. I just add it to regular coffee rather than adding sugar, it works well.
