How to make authentic French cafe au lait:

1. Make very strong coffee in a French press. Let it steep for three minutes.

2. In a sauce pain scald some milk. Do not make foam.

3. Pour equal parts of the coffee and scalded milk in a cup.

Can you make that? If so, I don't want any sugar.
Thanks for this!

I am going to pass on an evening coffee, but am looking forward to a fresh daily pot of it, brewed in the morning.

Ah, I'll certainly take my coffee now. I'll have a splash of vanilla soymilk please.

My parents are coming home from police training and vacation. I haven't seen them in a week! I missed them alot. I got my mom the complete works of Edgar Allen Poe and I got my dad the Mass Effect 3 game as a surprise. They got me a surprise too.
Thanks for this!
