Step 1
Brew 1 cup of strong coffee using your preferred method (drip, French press, or espresso). Keep it hot.
Step 2
In a small saucepan, combine 1 cup milk and the cinnamon stick. Heat over medium, stirring occasionally, until steaming and small bubbles form around the edges, about 4-5 minutes. Do not boil.
Step 3
Remove the cinnamon stick and froth the milk using a whisk or milk frother until it is foamy and doubled in volume, about 1-2 minutes.
Step 4
Pour the hot coffee into a large mug. Stir in 1 teaspoon sugar and 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon until dissolved.
Step 5
Slowly pour the frothed milk over the coffee, holding back the foam with a spoon, then spoon the foam on top.
Step 6
Dust the surface with the remaining 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon. Serve immediately with a cinnamon stick garnish if desired.
