If you’re at a coffee
If you’re at a coffee shop and just ask for a “macchiato,” this is what you’re going to get.
This drink is usually served in an espresso glass or small, white ceramic cup. Either way, it’s pretty small and often surprises customers who are used to the super-sized glorified latte-style drink that’s usually served at coffee chains.
The barista prepares an espresso macchiato by pulling a shot of espresso and pouring a couple teaspoons of steamed milk into it. There is the tiniest hint of foam on top and the steamed milk is just enough to slightly subdue the intensity of the shot.
Whereas a macchiato might sound pretty simple, the cappuccino is a whole new ball game. It is more similar in style to the layered latte macchiato. However, its taste more closely resembles the espresso macchiato.
This low-acid, well-balanced espresso drink includes equal parts steamed milk, foam, and espresso. The milk products complement the bold espresso flavor rather than overwhelming it. Nevertheless, the espresso macchiato is still a good bit stronger than this one.
The most important part of a cappuccino in its ratios. It should be exactly 1/3 espresso, 1/3 steamed milk, and 1/3 milk foam. The layering creates a unique experience as the espresso becomes more intense as you continue drinking it.
At specialty coffee houses, this drink will likely be served to you in a 6oz cup. Glass is preferable because it shows off the layering, though many places still opt for the classic-looking white ceramic. A well-trained barista can still tell if the drink is made properly without the visual by the weight of the drink.
The macchiato actually developed as a means of incorporating espresso drinking later in the day. Cappuccinos are a fan favorite for the morning. There’s enough espresso to wake you up and enough milk to keep you from seeming frazzled.
