Easy Foamy Milk (No Equipment!!)

This post will show you how to make a quick & easy foamy milk for your morning lattes when you are feeling a little fancy but don't have a milk frother or steamer handy.

It's seriously a really easy little method:

  1. You take a small mason jar,

  2. Fill it half way up with 2% milk (I've heard of success with 1% as well, but I haven't personally tried this because I like the flavor I get with the extra fat of 2%),

  3. Shake it up real good,

  4. Take the cap off and microwave it for 10 seconds.

VOILA!

You have a beautifully foamed milk to pour on top of that coffee and turn it into a fancy shmancy latte, all made by you!

I tried this method with whole milk with little success. It foamed up okay but the bubbles were quick to disappear. I switched to 2% and it made a world of difference! So definitely use a lower far milk for this for the best, most stable foam.

Ingredients

  • 1 or 2% milk

  • small mason jar

Instructions

  1. Fill mason jar halfway with milk 

  2. Shake well for at least 30 seconds, longer for more foam.

  3. Take lid off and microwave for 10 seconds. 

  4. Use foamy milk in your latte!
