Breve Coffee
Rich and smooth, Breve Coffee is a coffee beverage created by mixing strong espresso with steamed half-and-half. It's richer and thicker than a standard latte, offering a decadent start to the day or a sumptuous midday treat.
Ingredients
- Espresso double shot, about 2 ounces
- Half-and-half about 5 to 6 ounces
- Optional: flavored syrup or spices for garnish
Instructions
- Prepare the Espresso: Brew a double shot of espresso using a quality dark roast coffee.
- Steam the Half-and-Half: Heat the half-and-half until it is hot and lightly frothy, being careful not to overheat or overly foam.
- Combine and Serve: Pour the hot steamed half-and-half over the espresso in a pre-warmed mug. Stir gently to blend.
- Garnish (Optional): Add a dash of flavored syrup or a sprinkle of spices like cinnamon or nutmeg if desired.
Notes
For a lighter version, adjust the ratio of half-and-half to suit your taste.
Consider using a high-quality espresso machine and grinder for the best flavor.
