Title. I'm lactose-intolerant and try to veganise. I also love cortado but only had it in cafes in Spain. Is it possible to make cortado at home with a plant-based milk and if yes - how?

Yeah, a cortado is just 1:1 espresso and steamed milk. So all you’d need to do is use whatever plant based milk you like most.

Yeah!! My fav is oat, but any non-dairy milk will do. You might want to test the milk with your espresso, as the acidity may curdle your plant milk. Soy commonly curdles with drip coffee.

Also for those who don’t Google before you try. It’s easy to curdle almond milk while steaming it due to heat. Much harder for oat

thank you! I was going to get myself Barista Almond milk, but will look for oat instead
