A latte (from the Italian caffèlatte, meaning "coffee milk") is a coffee drink made with espresso and steamed milk.
Latte Art refers to patterns made in the foam topping of espresso drinks. Making good coffee is an art in itself, but apparently this niche community has been thriving around the world. There are how-to articles, World Latte-Art Champions, and what not.
This latte art photo was taken from Scottie Callaghan’s flickr photoset.
