Coffee with milk foam is brewed coffee or espresso topped with milk that has been heated and frothed. It is served in coffee shops around the world, with the coffee base and the amount of milk varying by café and local style; it does not have one single place of origin. The foam gives the drink a creamy top while leaving the coffee’s roasted flavour present. It is usually enjoyed hot, at breakfast or as a café break, sometimes alongside a pastry. When made without sugar or flavoured syrup, it is a light choice; the supplied figure is 18 calories per 100 g. For a less sweet, lighter cup, ask for no syrup and keep the milk foam modest.
