The new Latte Macchiato features steamed whole milk that is perfectly aerated and free-poured creating dense foam reminiscent of meringue. The beverage is then marked by slowly-poured full espresso shots, creating a signature espresso dot.

Latte Macchiato will be available in Starbucks® stores in the U.S., Canada and most of Latin America.
