A latte macchiato is a latte (espresso with steamed milk topped with foam), but instead of having the espresso shots on the bottom, the espresso is poured on top of the foam. These shots should also be ristretto shots, which are shots taken out about halfway through the duration of the pull. This shot contains the crema and some of the body, and is considered sweeter than a regular shot because it does not contain the "heart".

Latte at AllExperts (495 words)
In Italian these are known as "caffè e latte" (commonly "caffellatte"), literally "coffee and milk", analogous to (but not the same as) the French "café au lait", and latte macchiato which is very similar.
A latte is recognised as having one-third espresso and one centimetre of froth exhibiting latte art, with the remainder of the beverage being steamed milk.
The evolution of this term (and this particular form of the beverage) is relatively recent and probably dates from the spread of the 1980s Seattle coffee craze to the rest of the United States (and beyond) via the growth of Seattle-based Starbucks.
