Espresso with grappa

Spread the love

Ingredients for 2 servings:

  • 250 ml coffee (espresso), hot and strong
  • 2 cl grappa
  • 200 ml milk, warmed
  • 3 tsp sugar

Instructions

Working time approx. 8 minutes; Total time approx. 8 minutes

Divide the grappa between two long, preferably clear, glasses. Add the sugar to the espresso and mix well (the sugar must dissolve completely). Then pour about two-thirds of the sugar-based espresso into the glasses with the grappa. Add the rest of the sugar-based espresso to 125 ml of milk and mix. Carefully pour the mixture into the glasses with the grappa and espresso. This will separate the layers (similar to a latte macchiato). Froth the rest of the milk into froth, using a milk frother, for example. Then divide the froth between the two glasses and you’re done. Of course, you can also add patterns to the froth with cocoa powder.
