Espresso with milk, unsweetened combines a shot of espresso with milk and no added sugar. Espresso comes from Italy, where it is brewed under pressure; adding milk softens its concentrated coffee flavour without masking it completely. The amount of milk can make the cup taste richer or keep it closer to a straight espresso.
It works well as a small morning coffee or an afternoon pick-me-up, whether you make it at home or order it at a café. With no added sugar, it has a gentle milkiness and relatively little carbohydrate; the milk also contributes some protein. Pair it with toast or a simple biscuit, or use less milk if you prefer a lighter cup.
