Macchiato
A Macchiato is a simple yet flavorful coffee drink made with a shot of espresso and a small amount of steamed milk or foam. The word "macchiato" means "stained" or "marked" in Italian, referring to how the milk "stains" the espresso, creating a drink with a strong coffee flavor and a slight creaminess. The traditional macchiato has just a touch of milk, allowing the bold taste of the espresso to shine through. It’s an ideal choice for those who love the intensity of espresso but prefer a milder, creamier texture.
