Both are OK, but you need to put a comma after "break" in both sentences and change "latte" to "late" in the second sentence because "latte" is a type of hot coffee drink.

We are less likely to use the definite article in BrE if we are talking about the recreation time in the middle of the morning in schools, more likely to use it in other situations, for example, a coffee break between presentations.
