The Great Espresso Debate: Americano vs. Macchiato
Coffee is the ultimate liquid hug to kick start our day, but with so many options, it can be hard to know what to order. Fear not, dear reader, because The Los Angeles Coffee Cart is here to shed some light on the differences between an Americano and a Macchiato, with a little humor sprinkled in.
Let's start with the Americano…
This drink is like the coffee equivalent of dipping your toes in the water. It's a mild coffee drink that's perfect for those who are just starting to dip their toes into the world of espresso. It's made by adding hot water to a shot of espresso, giving it a lighter body than your typical espresso shot. Americanos were invented during World War II when American soldiers in Italy thought that the local espresso was too strong for their taste buds. So, they diluted it with hot water to create a milder drink. Genius!
Now, let's talk about the Macchiato…
This drink is for those who like to live life on the edge. It's a bold, in-your-face kind of drink that's perfect for anyone who wants a coffee drink that's as strong as their personality. The Macchiato is made by adding a small amount of milk foam to a shot of espresso. It's like a mini cappuccino with a punchy espresso shot that'll wake you up faster than an alarm clock on a Monday morning.
While the Americano and the Macchiato may both contain espresso, they're as different as night and day.
The Americano is mild and easy-going, while the Macchiato is bold and daring. Which one you choose really depends on your mood and caffeine tolerance level.
