Latte Coffee Guide

Though you might think that latte coffee would be a different type of drink, they also come under the heading of espresso. But they’re often thought of as being different because they contain much more milk than many regular espresso beverages.

These drinks also contain the foam and steamed milk as well. You can get these drinks in differing amounts of foam and steamed milk if you ask request it that way.

All lattes can have coffee syrup flavorings added to them. You can choose from flavors such as caramel, vanilla, hazelnut, or cinnamon. There are also seasonal flavors like peppermint or pumpkin spice that you can add.

You can also request that your latte is made as a skinny latte. This is the diet version of a latte. You do get fewer calories, but you still get the same great taste.

The calories are shaved by cutting out the sugar. Instead of regular coffee syrup to flavor your drink, a skinny latte is made with the sugar free kind. Some people get confused with the difference between a caffe latte and a cafe au lait.

The simple difference is that one is an espresso and the other is not. A caffe latte is espresso with steamed milk. A cafe au lait is made from brewed coffee and has steamed milk.
