Cafe Misto
Learn how to make a delicious Cafe Misto at home!
Total Time 5 minutes mins
- 20 grams ground coffee
- 6 oz water
- 6 oz milk
Follow the instructions to brew a cup of coffee according to whichever brewing method you choose—drip, pour-over, French Press, etc.
Add any sweeteners, syrups, or flavorings to the coffee.
Warm the milk, and froth it. Either use a designated milk frother or add the warm milk to a lidded jar and shake it until microfoam forms.
Pour the frothed milk over top of the brewed coffee and enjoy.

- It’s always better to measure your coffee by weight than by volume. This way, you’ll get the most accurate brew with the best taste. However, if you don’t have a kitchen scale at home, you can use 1 ½ - 2 tablespoons of coffee grinds per 6oz of water.
-
- You can also flavor the steamed milk if you’d like. For example, a vanilla or salted caramel milk foam would be delicious in a Café Misto.
