What does an iced latte mean?
An iced latte is a latte with ice.

Latte is a mixture of Italian espresso and milk. More milk and less coffee are the characteristics of latte, which is a fancy coffee and a favorite breakfast drink for Italians. The types of latte can be divided into Italian latte, Olay coffee, caramel latte and so on.

If you add some frothed cold milk to hot milk, it becomes an American latte. Starbucks' American latte is made like this: the bottom is espresso, the middle is milk heated to 65 ~ 75℃, and finally there is a layer of cold milk foam not exceeding half a centimeter.

Iced latte uses fructose mixed with milk to increase the proportion of milk, so that it will not be mixed with light proportion of coffee, but will become two layers of black and white, forming a beautiful visual effect like cocktail, and adding ice cubes will give people an elegant and romantic warm feeling.

How to choose coffee:

1, according to personal taste: different brands of coffee have different quality and taste. When making coffee, the varieties, roasting methods and waste formula of coffee beans are different, so the taste is different.

2. Choose a good package: coffee is a drink that easily loses its taste and goes bad. Sealed cans and vacuum packaging can keep the original quality of coffee well, while paper bags and unsealed bags will affect the inherent quality of coffee.

3. Choose coffee with aroma: Fake and inferior coffee is real coffee mixed with chicory root powder, or grains and beans are roasted and crushed before mixing. Real coffee contains caffeine and has a special aroma. Inferior coffee is generally caked due to expiration or lax sealing, and the aroma and taste change obviously, often the aroma disappears and the beverage has an odor.

4. Buy in moderation: Coffee is a beverage that cannot be stored. Once the coffee container is opened and exposed to the air, the essential oil such as caffeic alcohol will be gradually lost, and the unsaturated oil will be gradually oxidized. If coffee is left in the air for too long, it will lose its inherent fragrance.
