Light Vanilla Bean Latte

All the rage these days seems to be trying to lighten up lattes like the kind you get at Starbucks.  I discovered that it is super duper easy to do.  If you want to purchase an inexpensive milk frother, you can get one here.  But it’s not totally necessary.

This handy dandy took will get you the froth you need to make an endless selection of lattes, in all your favorite flavors.
