Almost every New Year, citrus coffee has become a very common dish on cafe menus. Not only because it is the season when citrus ripens, but also because citrus has a unique meaning of good luck. What Qianjie wants to share today is still a specially made milk coffee. It has the sweetness of citrus and the silky smoothness of chocolate. It is very suitable for enjoying this New Year and the cold weather ~(Note: Qianjie stores do not produce it, no produce it!) (Abstract presentation, please do not imitate ↓)

Let's call it an "orange chocolate latte"?! Orange syrup: Although this cup of coffee will have the aroma of orange, it will not use real citrus! Why? Because citrus acid can denature milk protein. Although it will not cause harm to the human body, it will never taste good, and it is also very unsightly. The latte made can easily look like the following.

Therefore, we will use orange-flavored syrup to make it! Then the Qianjie Association here recommends that everyone choose "orange peel syrup". It will have a stronger aroma and the sweetness is just right. Chocolate: You can choose from many chocolates in coffee, such as chocolate, cocoa powder, and chocolate sauce! But because we use orange peel syrup with its own sweetness, the Front Street Association recommends that when choosing chocolate, use chocolate with less sweetness or sugar-free cocoa powder, so that the coffee produced will not be Sweet and greasy, and the taste can be just right.

Coffee beans: We can have two options for coffee beans. If we want to make a more fragrant version, then we can choose a darker baked Italian blend, such as the Qianjie Italian blend in the Qianjie Bean List. Classic/basic/commercial/boutique blend. Because deeper roasting can bring strong aromas of nuts, chocolate, cream, and caramel to the coffee, the resulting coffee will have a mellow taste and a flavor similar to orange wafer, which is very good.

Then if we don't want to have a thick taste and taste, we can choose moderately roasted coffee beans to make it. For example, the former street Essei Huakui baked by SOE in the former street bean list, or the former street strawberry candy and rose summer mix. A lighter roast will not give the coffee too much charred flavor, and the taste will be relatively light. For friends who cannot drink heavy flavors, such coffee should be more suitable. Milk: If you want milk, you can choose regular fresh milk or oatmeal milk. There are no limitations. As long as you pay attention to its concentration not being too high (such as high-concentration purified milk), the coffee made will not be easily greasy.

Then when we have prepared the ingredients, we can start making coffee!

Making and sharing is very simple to make. We only need to add a proper amount of orange peel syrup and chocolate to regular dairy coffee making. It's just that the amount of materials used needs to be determined according to everyone's materials. If your chocolate/chocolate paste/cocoa powder has a high sugar content, then the amount of syrup needs to be reduced, and vice versa. Take Qianjie as an example. The coffee beans used here on Qianjie are the classic Qianjie Italian mix in the bean list. It is a medium to deep roasted coffee bean, and the chocolate used with it has relatively low sugar content, so the syrup used here will be more, which is 15ml, and then 15g of chocolate. (Abstract presentation, please do not imitate ↓)

The extraction parameters of coffee are as usual. Use 20g of coffee powder to extract 40ml of coffee liquor, and then take about 30 seconds. Then we can put the syrup and chocolate into the cup before espresso extraction, so that during the espresso extraction process, the materials can be directly blended with the coffee. If you use cocoa powder, remember to use bamboo stalks to stir. After the coffee extraction is complete, we can start whisking the milk. The milk used in the front street here is 180ml, which is used to make thin milk bubbles and can be stopped by controlling the temperature at around 65°C. Then you can start blending and pulling flowers to complete the coffee production.

As introduced in front of Front Street, the latte made in this way will have a pleasant citrus sweetness, and the taste will become more silky and mellow due to the addition of chocolate. The flavors are citrus, chocolate, cream, nuts, and caramel, which is really like drinking a liquid cup of orange chocolate coffee-flavored wafers! Highly recommended to try it!!!
