Things To Take Care Of While Making This Recipe

Pistachios for this latte

Sometimes the simplest things are the best. Therefore, we decided to leave below some simple tips that will make your latte even more delicious! Check below:

  • Make sure the milk is not too hot when you add the espresso, or it will scald and become bitter.
  • Don’t overheat the butter while melting it, or it will start to cook and turn brown.
  • Be careful while stirring the caramelized sugar and salt, as it can be pretty sticky and hot.
  • Make sure the espresso is brewed very strong, or the milk and syrup will overpower it.
  • If you don’t have pistachio syrup, you can use any other type of flavored syrup instead.
  • You can also make this recipe with a regular latte or cappuccino foam instead of brown butter.
  • If you’re not a fan of pistachios, you can try making this recipe with another type of nuts, such as almonds or hazelnuts.
  • The salted brown butter topping is also delicious on other coffee drinks, such as lattes or mochas.
  • You can store any leftover salted brown butter in the fridge and use it on other recipes, such as pancakes or waffles.
  • Be careful not to drink too many of these delicious pistachio lattes, or you’ll end up with a caffeine overdose!
