A milk foam drink is made by aerating milk. Use a handheld frother, pump a French press plunger, or shake milk in a tightly closed jar; if you plan to serve it hot, heat the milk after shaking it.
Milk with enough protein tends to make a more stable foam for a milk foam drink. Whole milk usually tastes creamier, while lower-fat milk can produce a lighter foam; the frother and technique also affect the result.
Yes, you can make a milk foam drink without a dedicated frother. Pumping milk in a French press or shaking it in a sealed jar adds air; warm the milk separately if you want a hot drink.
Yes, a milk foam drink can be served cold. Froth cold milk and serve it soon afterward, since the foam gradually separates; cold foam is also easy to pour over a chilled drink.
Not necessarily; a milk foam drink can be made with milk alone. Coffee is included only when the recipe adds it, so the name by itself does not mean it is a coffee drink.
The foam in a milk foam drink often collapses when its bubbles are too large or the milk is overheated. Aerate the milk evenly, avoid excessive heat, and serve the drink soon after preparing it.
Yes, lactose-free milk can be used in a milk foam drink. Its foam may differ between products because milk composition varies, so adjust the frothing time and method if the first batch is too loose.
A milk foam drink is not necessarily a cappuccino. Cappuccino is an espresso-based coffee with steamed milk and foam, while a milk foam drink can be served without coffee.
A milk foam drink is best made just before serving because its foam settles over time. Refrigerate any leftover milk-based drink promptly rather than leaving it at room temperature, and reheat it thoroughly if serving warm.
Add sugar to a milk foam drink before frothing so it has more time to dissolve. You can sweeten it afterward too, but stirring may disturb the foam; syrups also change the drink’s flavor.

A milk foam drink is made by heating and frothing milk, creating a light, creamy beverage. It has no single place of origin and can be prepared at home with a whisk or frother, or ordered in cafés. Some versions include coffee or cocoa, while others let the flavour of the milk stand on its own.
The airy foam sits above a smoother, fuller-bodied liquid, and the drink may be served hot or cold. It is often enjoyed at breakfast or as a café treat; a little cinnamon or cocoa makes a simple topping. Milk provides protein, with 3.3 g per 100 g. For a lighter version, use lower-fat milk and skip added sugar.
Medium
How many vitamins, minerals and how much fiber this food carries per calorie. A high score means a lot of nutrition for few calories.
Medium
An EatBetter score computed from fiber, protein and calorie density. A high score means staying full longer on the same calories.
Both scores are calculated per 100 g and do not change with the selected portion. The satiety score is EatBetter's own calculation, not a clinical measure.
