Notes
- You can also use instant espresso instead of brewing espresso at the moment for making this drink. Or just make your instant brewed coffee & add but we would suggest to use espresso as this would enhance the taste of your latte.
- If you like your coffee to be sweeter, you can adjust the amount of blueberry compote or add extra sugar to your espresso while it is still hot. A coffee creamer will also work.
- If you don’t want to drink a cold blueberry latte, just skip the ice and warm your milk before pouring it into the cup.
