About Macchiato

Macchiato, an Italian coffee beverage, is crafted by combining a shot of espresso with a small amount of foamed milk. Its name, meaning "stained" or "spotted" in Italian, reflects the touch of milk that softens the coffee's intense flavor while preserving its robust profile. Typically served in a demitasse cup, macchiatos are celebrated for their simplicity and bold taste. Nutritionally, they are low in calories if served without added sugars or syrups, making them a light option for coffee enthusiasts. Espresso contains antioxidants and may provide a boost in focus and metabolic activity, while the milk contributes calcium and small amounts of protein. However, macchiatos can become less healthy with excessive sweeteners or flavoring syrups, which could increase calorie and sugar content. This drink offers a refined way to enjoy coffee's richness without overwhelming additions, appealing to those seeking a balanced indulgence.
