Indeed, and the kind of recipe that is described here is a way of creating such a drink.  The recipes for making lattes that are mentioned in that article call for drinking hot milk to flavor it.  The recipes in this article describe a more modern way of making lattes that calls for adding a substance called “Caffe” to the milk, although I’m not sure what that might be.
