Cafe com Leite, meaning "coffee with milk" in Portuguese, is a traditional Brazilian beverage that combines freshly brewed coffee with warm milk, resulting in a creamy, balanced drink. Typically served at breakfast or as an afternoon treat, it features a ratio of approximately equal parts coffee and milk, although proportions can vary to suit personal tastes. The coffee provides a dose of caffeine that can boost energy and mental alertness, while the milk contributes calcium, protein, and essential vitamins. However, it may be a source of added sugars if sweetened, depending on preparation. The drink is versatile, allowing for substitutions like plant-based milks for reduced fat or dairy-free options. While its health benefits are tied to moderation, excessive consumption, especially with added sugar, might outweigh these advantages. Cafe com Leite is a comforting and iconic representation of Brazilian coffee culture, ideal for those seeking a milder coffee experience.
