Espresso Drinks
| Espresso | A single shot (approximately 1 to 1-1/2 oz of espresso). Sugar may be added. |
| Espresso Doppio | A double shot of espresso. (Doppio means double in Italian). |
| Caffe Americano | To one shot of espresso add hot water to make a full 6-8 oz. cup. Unlike traditional espresso, this beverage is often consumed in the "American style" with milk and/or sugar. |
| Espresso con Panna | A single espresso topped with a dollop of whipped cream. |
| Espresso Macchiato | A single serving of espresso topped with a dollop of frothed milk. |
| Espresso Breve | A single shot of espresso with heated half & half milk added. |
| Espresso Romano | Make the basic espresso and serve with a twist or slice of lemon. |
| Espresso Cubano | Double shots brewed with raw sugar. |
| Cappuccino | 1/3 espresso, 1/3 steamed milk, and 1/3 frothed milk. Powdered cocoa or cinnamon may be sprinkled on top as a garnish. To layer the milk and espresso, it is necessary to allow the freshly frothed milk a moment to rest and thus separate (foam on top and milk on the bottom). Brew the espresso into a 3 oz. stainless pitcher (ceramic or glass will absorb too much heat of the espresso). Pour steamed milk into the bottom third of the cup. Pour the espresso slowly into the steamed milk. Spoon frothed milk on top to fill cup. Done in this order, the espresso should settle between the milk and the foam. Properly frothed milk should be approximately 150ºF to 170ºF. It is a matter of personal preference and may be slightly hotter or cooler. |
| Mochaccino | A single shot of espresso mixed to taste with chocolate syrup or powder and 5 oz. steamed milk. Top with peaked milk foam. |
| Cafe Mocha | A single espresso poured into a tall glass filled with steamed milk to which a spoonful of chocolate syrup is added. Top with whipped cream and garnish with chocolate flakes. |
| Iced Cappuccino | Pour one shot of freshly brewed espresso over ice and add 3 oz. cold milk. Espresso looses its flavor quite rapidly therefore, using prepared espresso is not recommended. Spoon foamed milk on top to create a layer of foam. Sweeten to taste. |
| Cafe Latte | Make a single shot of espresso. Add steamed milk to fill an 8 to 10 oz. latte mug (preferably clear). Lattes are frequently flavored with Italian syrups. |
