Answer:
sounds delicious-thank you!I do have a machine-but it's a hassle to get out!
Answer:
Not to be nitpicky, but a latte is actually is espresso and steamed milk. Cafe au lait is coffee and steamed milk. It's amazing how people who work in coffee shops don't even know the difference!
I drink cafe au lait every morning. I find it quick and easy but that's me. I bring some milk, just to a boil, on the stove, and pour it over coffee and that I've brewed at home. If I want it really frothy, I can froth/steam the milk on my coffeemaker or use a handheld frother that I have...quick and easy.
I'm not into flavored syrups, so I just use a little plain sugar. It just depends on what you want...
