Like cappuccino, latte is suitable for drinking in the morning because of the amount of milk it contains. Italians also like to take it to warm up their stomachs and use it with breakfast.

Extended information:

The term latte was not used outside Italy until the 1980s. The composition of a typical latte is one-third espresso Espresso plus two-thirds fresh milk, using milk that has been steamed and frothed to create a smooth, soft texture,. The frothing of the milk is done with the steam wand of the coffee machine.

This is different from a cappuccino, which is equal parts espresso and steamed milk and foam, whereas an espresso macchiato is equal parts espresso and frothed milk, with no steamed milk. A macchiato is sometimes called a "dry cappuccino".
