Next Time, I'll Skip the Foam!

Do not try this at home!

It was such a good idea. I was really on to something. In an attempt to be frugal, I decided to make my tea latte at home this morning, instead of pulling through Starbucks. The only problem is, it's just not as good without the foam. In a stroke of genius, I decided to heat up the milk in the microwave, then transfer it into a cocktail shaker and shake it to the desired consistency. The problem is, the hot milk built up pressure in the shaker. I didn't even get one shake in before Boom! milk exploded in a four foot radius.

Apparently there is some law of science that governs this kind of thing.
