Notes
Espresso alternatives: If you don't have an espresso machine, you can use very strong French press coffee, cold brew concentrate, or brewed instant espresso powder. You could also just grab some espresso shots from your local coffee shop like I did!
Milk: Use any type of milk you like. I used oat and it was lovely!
