Milk Frother & His Birthday

Hub's birthday was in November and I had to crack my head thinking of what to buy.

With limited money and time, I really had no idea on what.

Then I remembered that he lovesssss matcha latte. 

It is his recent obsession lately. 

of course, I am responsible in introducing Matcha to him.

Otherwise, he sticks to coffee and tea.

We have our own matcha powder at home.

The one Mom bought for us when she was travelling Japan.

It is really2 good. 

It's like my daily dose of antioxidant.

We have tried making our own version of Matcha Latte, 

but we failed to nail it.

As i made my further investigation on how to improve the home made version of matcha latte, 

I finally figured out the key: Froth your milk.

It's the bubble and creamy texture that makes latte so yummy.

So, i figured, what could be better to give him for his big day?

A Milk Frother!

Not only that it will add to our kitchen essentials, but his matcha latte or any other latte can tremendously improved!

So I began searching for the most reliable, affordable milk frother.

I found that there are many types of Milk Frother in the market.

I have few options in mind. 

I have tried looking for it high and low from the local shops, like Kitchen Shop, Harvey Norman, Parkson, or any canggih2 centre. But it is either they don't carry it or that it has ran out of stock.

what i wanted is something like this: (based on reviews)

Another option I had was to purchase online.

and the only one providing it is 11th Street.

I have never purchased from 11th Street, and I didnt know exactly how long it will take.

Few errands came in between and I got caught up in the middle.

and at last, his birthday came.

I didnt get to buy him any gift on time.

except for a Pavlova with candle on top.

hehehe

But, on our visit to Ikea last month, I finally bought the long awaited milk frother!

but please, the price is so cheap, it is hardly a present!

only RM5.90

ahahahahah

But Hub was happy with it.

he even complimented that it is one of the best birthday gift i have given him.

We make latte almost on daily basis.

Coffee, matcha, or even hot chocolate.

I even use it to whisk eggs. 

We love it.

We love the price even more!  

Now, we get to enjoy our coffee or matcha as above.

need to learn how to make this later:
