All Time Favorites


espresso
A dark roast coffee extracted under high pressure. Be sure to use good quality espresso! Contrary to popular belief, one shot of espresso actually has the equivalent amount of caffeine as a cup of coffee. The best espresso is brewed with one of those huge metal (likely brass) machines you see in cafes. After that, beware the personal espresso maker, even from companies whose coffee makers are fantastic! Remember that your espresso grind needs to be finer when it is wet or humid outside.
cappuccino
1/3 shot espresso, 1/3 steamed milk,1/3 milk froth.
dry cappuccino
Use less milk, more foam.
café latte
Steamed milk and shot(s) of espresso.
café au lait
Like a latte but made with brewed coffee instead of espresso. About ˝ coffee and &frac; steamed milk.
hazelnut café
This is another variation on the latte. Use hazelnut coffee instead of espresso and steamed hot chocolate instead of milk. (This drink goes by a thousand different names!)
hot chocolate
Use high quality hot chocolate: either Ghiradelli's chocolate powder or semi-sweet bakers chocolate shavings. Proportions for a mug are 1 Tbs. powder or 3 Tbs. shavings. Mix chocolate with milk. Just steam; don't froth. Top with fresh whipped cream.
café mocha
Steamed hot chocolate with shot(s) of espresso and whipped cream.
mochacino
Steamed hot chocolate, espresso and white milk foam.
macchiato
Shot of espresso topped with foam. Like cappuccino without milk layer.
americano
Shot of espresso brewed on top of hot water. The on top part is essential because you do not want to break the golden creme on top of the espresso. So brew the espresso directly into the water-filled serving cup if the cup will fit under your espresso machine.
