Serves 1

Ingredients

Espresso
1 shot
Fino Sherry
1 ounce
Milk
6 ounces
Cocoa powder
1 teaspoon (for garnish)
Sugar
1 teaspoon (optional, to taste)

Instructions

  1. Brew a shot of espresso using your preferred method.
  2. In a small saucepan, heat the milk over medium heat until hot but not boiling, stirring gently to prevent scorching.
  3. Once the milk is hot, use a milk frother or whisk to froth the milk until it becomes creamy and foamy. Aim for a velvety texture.
  4. In a coffee cup, combine the freshly brewed espresso and Fino Sherry. Stir gently to blend the flavors.
  5. Pour the frothed milk over the espresso and sherry mixture, allowing the foam to sit atop the drink.
  6. Sprinkle cocoa powder on top for garnish, adding a touch of elegance and a hint of chocolate flavor.
  7. Serve hot and enjoy this delightful fusion of coffee and sherry.

Tips

  • 💡 For a sweeter variation, add flavored syrups such as vanilla or caramel.
  • 💡 Experiment with different types of sherry, like Amontillado, for a deeper flavor profile.
  • 💡 For a more intense cocoa taste, try using dark cocoa powder.
