White House Petitions Don’t Do Much.

If Links Don’t Work And You’re International - Not a document I have made, I don't know who created it but if you know, I'll credit accordingly.
- 2 tbsp. caster sugar
- 2 tbsp. instant coffee or espresso powder
- 2 tbsp. very hot water (boiling water damages the coffee)
- 1 cup of milk of your choice
- You won't be able to get the fluffiest results as seen in videos and photos if you reduce the amount of sugar. However, you can reduce the sugar to 1 tbsp and it will still be pretty tasty.
- You can use an electric mixer or whisk by hand, but risk an arm ache with the latter!
- I definitely would not have this every day as it has quite a lot of sugar. I may replace the sugar with zero-calorie caramel syrup and I shall let you know how that goes.
