How to Froth Milk

You don’t have to go to a coffee shop to froth milk right. You can froth it at home using a few different methods.

  • Whisking it with a hand frother
  • Gently blending it in a blender or food processor 
  • Shaking it in a closed jar
  • Using a handheld mixer
  • Putting it through French press

Whole milk is best for frothing because of its creaminess, but you can use other kinds of milk or milk substitutes, too.

Recipe Variations

You can put your own twist on this recipe to make it perfect for your tastes. These are some ways to switch it up.

  • Choose Alex’s Low Acid Coffee in Regular, Half Caff, or Decaf to keep it low in acid and regulate your caffeine intake, while adding more of a chocolatey flavor due to the medium dark French Roast compared to the Italian roast of Alex’s Low Acid Coffee Rise and Shine blend.
  • Make it sugar-free with a low-calorie powdered sugar substitute, such as powdered monk fruit blend, instead of regular powdered sugar.
  • Make it plant-based by using oat milk or coconut milk instead of regular milk. Almond milk can work, too, but it may not be as frothy. You can also switch to 2% instead of whole milk.
