The same espresso shot changes completely in strength, texture, and sweetness depending on whether milk, water, ice, or cream goes in.
The same shot of espresso can end up strong or mild, silky or icy, depending on how much milk goes in, whether water is added, and how fast the ice melts. Rather than deciding purely between bold flavor and a soft texture, thinking about how long you'll be drinking it, whether you want it cold, or whether you'd rather use a plant-based milk makes for a much more specific order.
This list moves from hot latte through iced, flat white, and cappuccino, then into plant milks, condensed milk and cream, water and ice, and sparkling combinations. If you're sensitive to allergens or digestion, it's worth checking ingredients and cross-contact before ordering.
