Macchiato, is an espresso based drink with milk.

- brian-m 3mo agoCorrect. An espresso drink may have milk in it. An espresso does not. Edited to remove because the paper clarifies that it’s black coffee. But missed the (edit- found the clarification). Was quoted whilst in the process of fixing!
- shermantanktop 3mo agoThere are much greater sins against Italian coffee than dropping a word that doesn't change the meaning. "Espresso drink" vs. "Espresso-based drink"? come on. For those sensitive souls I'd think they'd be more worried about "Expresso","Frappacino", "Puppacino", Starbucks, and 20oz "venti" lattes.
- cloudfudge 3mo agoA mocha is an espresso drink. A latte is an espresso drink. A cappuccino is an espresso drink. An espresso is an espresso drink. Some espresso drinks have milk in them and some don't. Anyone offended by the question, "did the espresso drinks have milk in them?" is just looking for something to be offended by, as seems to often be the case with people who fly off the handle over the topics of coffee, pasta, and pizza.
