How did the term latte originate?

G’day coffee lover!

The term "latte" originally comes from the Italian caffè latte, which means "milk coffee." This beverage is believed to have become popular in the United States during the 1980s and 1990s, when coffee shops began to offer a wider variety of espresso-based drinks. The latte is made by adding steamed milk to a single shot of espresso, and then a small amount of foam is added to the top. The ratio of espresso to milk can vary depending on the size of the drink and personal preference. In addition, many coffee shops have added their own twist to the classic latte, by offering flavored syrups like vanilla or caramel to add an extra layer of sweetness. Nowadays, the term "latte" is not only used in the United States but also in many other parts of the world, where it has become a standard way to order a coffee with milk.
