How to make a Latte Macchiato?

The key difference between a latte and a latte macchiato lies in the way they’re prepared and served. In a latte, espresso is poured first, and steamed milk is added on top, followed by a thin layer of foam. In contrast, a latte macchiato starts with the milk, and then the espresso is gently poured over the milk to create those beautiful layers. Both drinks are delicious, but the latte macchiato offers a more visual and textural contrast, with the layers being a distinctive feature.
