coffee
Every time I go to a western restaurant for afternoon tea, I believe many friends will order a cup of coffee, which is not only refreshing, but also very emotional. However, when ordering coffee, many people are faced with various coffee names on the menu, but they don't know where to start. For example, the most common mocha and latte, when it comes to the difference between them, many friends will look puzzled. Lazy meow will talk to you about this topic today. Let's see:
What's the difference between mocha coffee and latte?
0 1 Cultural Origin Mocha Coffee's name "Mocha" originated from Mocha, a seaside town in Yemen, an Asian country, and monopolized the coffee export trade in the15th century. What is produced here is a chocolate-colored mocha coffee bean, from which people germinated the idea of adding chocolate to coffee, and there is the mocha coffee we saw in coffee shops today.
Coffee latte
The name "latte latte" of latte means "milk" in Italian. 1683, a Viennese named Koceski opened a local cafe. Because business was not very good, he started with coffee, changed the formula, filtered out coffee grounds and added a lot of milk. The earliest prototype of the latte we are drinking now comes from Censky.
From the cultural origin, Mocha coffee originated from Mocha, a seaside town on the red sea in Yemen, and latte came from the owner of a cafe in Vienna, Austria.
Mocha coffee with different raw materials is made of espresso, chocolate sauce, whipped cream and milk, and is usually sprinkled with cinnamon powder or cocoa powder, which is rich in raw materials. Latte is a mixture of espresso and milk. There is no chocolate sauce and whipped cream in it, which can be simply understood as a combination of milk and coffee.
From the composition of raw materials, the main raw materials of mocha coffee are espresso, chocolate sauce, whipped cream and milk, while the main raw materials of latte are only espresso and milk.
Lattes with different appearances and styles
Mocha coffee usually has whipped cream and brown chocolate sauce on its surface, and a little cinnamon or cocoa powder as an ornament to make the picture more gorgeous; There will be a thin layer of milk foam on the surface of the latte. If you order a latte in a coffee shop, there will usually be a very delicate flower pattern on the surface.
From the appearance style, the difference between the two coffees is reflected in the surface pattern. Mocha coffee is rich in surface and consists of cream, chocolate sauce, cinnamon powder or cocoa powder. The surface pattern of latte coffee is simple and generous, and there are usually exquisite flowers.
Different flavors of mocha coffee
Mocha coffee tastes like chocolate and cream, which is very good for people who like dessert. Some people describe the taste of mocha coffee as the taste of love, because it is too sweet. There is more milk in the latte than coffee, so the taste of coffee is not so strong, but has a mellow fresh milk taste.
From the taste point of view, mocha coffee tastes sweet, with chocolate flavor and cream flavor; Latte coffee tastes like fresh milk.
Conclusion Coffee
The difference between mocha coffee and latte coffee is mainly reflected in four aspects, namely, different cultural origins, different raw materials, different appearance styles and different tastes. Next time you order coffee, you won't be confused.
However, I would like to remind friends who are losing weight here that if they want to drink coffee, they must not choose mocha, because the heat inside is very high, and the heat of a cup of mocha coffee is about the same as that of three small bowls of rice. If you really want to drink, you can choose to drink a latte.
