A Café Misto is a piping hot cup of equal parts coffee and velvety steamed milk. It’s different from most craft coffees on your local coffee shop’s menu, like a macchiato, breve, or cortado. Those are all made with espresso, while the Café Misto features drip coffee.
The difference between the two beverages comes down to the type of coffee used in the drink. For example, a Café Misto uses regular brewed coffee, while a latte is made with espresso.
Go with a full-bodied and intense dark roast to make this Café Misto taste all the more indulgent. The thicker, more oily consistency and mouthfeel of a dark roast combat the watery, thin texture of the drip coffee!
Grinding whole coffee beans right before brewing any coffee will produce the freshest, most potent flavor possible!
