Be selfish. Let's start with our favorite latte. Latte is the ultimate fusion of Italian espresso and milk, and a latte is usually indispensable on the breakfast table of Italians. Speaking of it, the origin of latte is quite far away, which can be traced back to Vienna in the17th century. Steam milk is added to the strong espresso, and finally a thin layer of milk foam floats on the surface, thus a cup of latte is born.
2. Cappuccino: A deep attachment bubble
Cappuccino is an Italian coffee, which is mixed with equal amount of espresso and steamed foamed milk. Its color is like a dark brown coat covered with a headscarf by a monk cappuccino, hence its name. 1/3 espresso, 1/3 steamed milk and 1/3 foamed milk are traditional cappuccino recipes, and small particles of cinnamon powder will be sprinkled on them. Generally speaking, the rich coffee aroma+the moist feeling of milk foam+the spicy feeling of cinnamon, and the layering of cappuccino makes people feel throbbing.
3. Mocha: The oldest coffee variety in the world.
Single product coffee tastes bitter. In order to create more flavors of coffee, witty people began to add milk, milk foam and even chocolate to their coffee. Mocha is the perfect combination of coffee and chocolate. Mocha coffee is the oldest coffee variety in the world, which originated in Yemen, Arabian Peninsula. Its name comes from Mocha Port, which was the only place to transport coffee beans.
Mocha is a classic fancy coffee. Fancy mocha is made of Italian latte. In addition to traditional espresso and hot milk, a cup of mocha is flavored with chocolate sauce and cream, which is fragrant and sweet.
4. espresso: the hero who made all kinds of fancy coffee.
Espresso is Italian espresso, which is the basis of many coffees, such as latte and cappuccino mentioned above. Espresso tastes bitter and deep, and its making is also an art. Driven by pressure, hot water filters the compact and finely ground coffee powder to make a cup of coffee with extremely rich taste. This process can extract the core delicious taste of coffee.
If you can't drink too bitter, you can add more sugar or water. A perfect cup of espresso should have thick brown and gold foam on the surface. This foam is good enough to let the added sugar float on the surface for a few seconds, and then slowly fall.
5. American coffee: pirated Italian espresso.
American coffee (Americano) should also be the favorite of many people, which is made from a small cup of espresso and a cup of hot water. At first, Americans couldn't accept the bitterness of coffee, so they added hot water to dilute the bitterness. This is the origin of American coffee. But now, there are also many American coffees with rich milk flavor and rich taste.
Many people like to add milk or sugar before drinking American coffee. However, coffee experts suggest that it is best not to add too much milk, and try to keep the amount of milk to a minimum, otherwise there will be no taste of coffee! It's great to have a cup of American coffee with ice on a hot day, but since it's cold, let's drink it while it's hot.
