Frankel saidshe’s “never, ever, ever getting coffee out again” since discovering this trick. If you want to give it a try for yourself,one of our favorite milk frothersis currently just $8 at Amazon.

When wetested 26 milk frothersto find the best ones, this PowerLix model earned our award for the best value. At full price, our testers loved what it has to offer, which makes it a no-brainer at nearly 50 percent off. You’ll get a battery-powered milk frother, a countertop stand, a stainless steel milk pitcher, and some stencils for making latte art.

Our testers found this frother worked best in thinner liquids, including milk and oat milk. That would also include the iced coffees Frankel has been making, since they’re just made of water and instant coffee. We also liked it as a tool for beginners who are new to making fancy coffee drinks at home because of its ease of use and all-in-one packaging. You simply dip the whisk into soapy water and run it to clean the machine after each use.

More than 5,000 people have bought one in the past month at Amazon, and the milk frother has racked up more than 67,000 five-star ratings so far. “This has a powerful little motor,”one shopper wrote. “It makes a nice thick foam and is very easy to clean.”Another reviewer saidit’s great for mixing nutritional powders into your drinks. “If you want a nice frothy milk on top of your coffee, this is for you,” they added.
