I've been making iced lattes for my wife all summer. She isn't much of a coffee drinker and she's also somewhat sensitive to caffeine. I used one chilled AeroPress shot, 1 tsp of sweetener, 1 tsp Stirling French Vanilla flavoring, and enough cold milk to top up an 8oz. glass.
Now that winter has arrived, she wants hot lattes. Basically, I follow the same method except I don't chill the AeroPress shot and I heat the milk in a saucepan. However, it doesn't yield the same flavor. The heated milk is rather overpowering. Could I be doing something better than this current method? I'm thinking the only thing to do is add more and more flavoring until the milk is finally overpowered. That, or else add some decaf beans and make a shot-and-a-half or a double shot. Any suggestions?
Thanks.
