There's no question that I love coffee, but I love Espresso even more. I love the strong punch that only espresso or a shot of tequila can give me, however the shot of espresso is more palpable for my palate than the tequila. If I have time in the morning to prepare espresso, I use this little piece of amazingness to do so. I mix it with some almond milk, some sugar or syrup, and I have a cup of greatness that will keep me awake for my long, physically (and mentally) exhausting 12 hour shifts.
Espresso is a beverage made by forcing a small amount of boiling water under pressure through ground coffee or espresso beans. The final product is a creamier, and more concentrated version of coffee. Espresso was discovered in Italy, and it fills the tables of nearly all Italian street side cafes.
After dinner in Tuscany, I was offered a shot of espresso. Yes, Please!! It was strong, delicious, and
exactly what I needed to jump start my evening for some dancing in Florence!
