To make the strawberry syrup, place the strawberries, sugar, almond extract and lemon juice in a small saucepan over medium-low heat.

Spoon 2 tablespoons of the strawberry syrup into a tall serving glass, then top with ice. Carefully pour in the milk and finish with the cold espresso. Garnish with a fresh strawberry to serve.
Tip: Store the remaining strawberry syrup in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 week. It's also great over ice cream.
