There is an adorable cafe in Georgetown where you can get the most
amazing Nutella lattes- iced or hot.
The dilemma: they hit your wallet hard at $5 each. Determined to have
access to cheap Nutella lattes everyday, Little V set out to find out
their recipe.
You will need:
1 Espresso Maker (Krups sells one for $60 that works like magic- Krups
Model XP 1020 Espresso Machine)
1 Frothing Pitcher (again, can get one for $13 from Krups)
Ground Espresso (Little V prefers Lavazza Caffe Espresso)
Nutella
Milk
optional: cocoa powder
The “recipe” itself is totally simple
The hardest part is figuring out how to work your espresso machine.
Brew the espresso- Little V prefers a 1-1 ratio of espresso to frothed milk.
Pour the fresh brewed espresso into a mug. Add 1+ tbs of nutella
while the espresso is still super hot (the nutella will mix better).
Stir.
Froth the milk (skim milk froths better) and pour into the mug.
Optional: sprinkle cocoa powder on top of the frothed milk and serve.
Little V, the mathematics guru that she is, calculated that the cost of the machine and frother alone would be 15 lattes at Starbucks, or 7 nutella lattes at the special cafe. She thinks
that we have already made about 50 lattes and have only had the
machine for 2 weeks!!
Drink up!!!

why was this place not in operation when I was there!?!? so jealous. I adore Nutella! too bad they're so expensive! yay for making your own 🙂 have a great week, my dearest! xoxo {av}
Yumm
Could you do a post about organizing your cosmetics, nail polish, shoes, scarves, etc? Maybe a closet pictorial? Just wondering how you organize all of those little extra things that we acquire and it takes forever to find the perfect system for them. Thanks!
So cute, sounds yummy! Would you believe I've had an espresso maker for almost 14 years and it's never been used?? I think you've inspired me!
Wow, thank you !
I also thought they're too expensive ! But totally worth it.
Thanks for sharing 🙂
Wait, hold the phone missy… are you talking about the creamy Nutella you spread on toast??
Do you think it would work with just super hot coffee for those of us without an expresso machine?? I really want to try!
I would love to drink this drink through my computer screen right now!
georgetown girl, here– i NEED the name of this cafe, please.
Can't beat this for inexpensive espresso like coffee. http://www.bialettishop.com/MokaExpressMain.htm
Great recipe! I always like these Nutella hot cocoa's you can get in some European Starbucks.
omgosh! i love nutella! =)) these sound awesome!
My fave recipe is a spoonful of instant coffee with 2 packets of hot chocolate and ice and water and it's an instant frappe! It's amazing I sware!
YUM! Sounds so tasty (anything with nutella is amazing right!).
Thanks for the recipe, can't wait to try it :).
