Its not mistranslated, its caffe latte but the caffe part is cut off for brevity when ordering at a coffee shop.

I know, what I’m saying is that latte = milk in italian, so if you ordered latte in Italy you would get a glass of milk, that’s what I mean by mistranslation

Fair enough, more of a misuse as the word has kind evolved away from its original meaning.
