Hey there coffee lover. Lucky Cuppa has prepared the perfect caffeinated dark roast chocolate flavoured recipe for you.
Dark roast coffee is a favourite among coffee enthusiasts who crave a deep, robust flavour.
The extended roasting time makes sure to bring out the oils in the beans, giving a dark roast coffee its intense flavour.
What You’ll Need:
- 2 shots (2 oz) of The Valley Of Fear Rimini Espresso (freshly brewed, of course)
- 6 oz of cold, fresh milk
- Optional: 1 tsp of sugar or your preferred sweetener
Equipment:
- Espresso machine or Moka pot
- Milk frother or steam wand
- Lucky Cuppa Mug
The Latte Masterpiece:
- Brew 2 shots (2 oz) of rich and robust Rimini Espresso using your espresso machine or Moka pot. This dark roast blend is the perfect foundation for your latte.
- While the espresso is brewing, pour the cold milk into a metal or glass pitcher.
- Use your milk frother or steam wand to steam and froth the milk. You’re aiming for a silky, velvety texture with a nice layer of microfoam on top.
- If you’d like to add a touch of sweetness, stir in 1 tsp of sugar or your preferred sweetener into the espresso.
- Carefully pour the steamed and frothed milk into the espresso, starting from the centre and working your way outward in a circular motion. This will create a beautiful, layered latte.
- Optional: Top your creation with a sprinkle of cocoa powder or a drizzle of chocolate syrup for an extra indulgent touch.
The Taste Test:
Take a moment to inhale the intoxicating aroma of the Rimini Espresso and the silky milk. The dark chocolate notes of the coffee will immediately tantalise your senses.
As you take your first sip, let the flavours dance on your tongue. The robust, bold espresso provides a solid foundation, while the velvety milk smooths out the intensity, creating a harmonious blend. You may even detect subtle hints of nougat and gentle acidity that linger pleasantly.
This latte is the perfect balance of bold and sweet, with a luxurious, creamy texture that’ll make you feel like you’re indulging in a decadent dessert. The Rimini Espresso’s complex flavour profile shines through, complemented beautifully by the milk.
