I cannot eat chocolate but would like to drink a latte. Is there any chocolate in a regular latte? I know you can get a chocolate latte, but need to know if a plain latte has chocolate in it.

A "chocolate latte" would be called a mocha. There are many lovely charts out there which nicely depict the differences between espresso drinks, like this one: http://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0319/8489/files/espresso-recipe-guide-966x1224.png?1086 – logophobe Aug 29 '14 at 15:45

No, it does not. A latte is espresso with steamed milk and a thin layer of steamed milk foam on top. Assuming your barista knows what he is doing, you'd have to specially ask to get chocolate in a latte, and then it would be called a mocha (in the US).

Not a big deal, you nailed the substance of the question. I've just been criticized before for forgetting foam. I'm not a barista, just a pedant. – logophobe Aug 29 '14 at 16:01

It's got a bit of foam on the top unless it's a wet latte, which is milk with no foam. – GdD Aug 29 '14 at 16:10
