Stephelle’s Kitchen: Milkee Coffee

this is a prelude to the post of
French Latte X Greek Frappé: Crash-Course on Coffee

 

yesterday was the first morning

I didn’t drink Milo as breakfast

for the four months I have been here

 

I am not a great fan of coffee

yet suddenly took an interest in it

due to the little experiment I played yesterday

 

have a few packs of instant coffee

just coffee powder and sugar

you know sometimes how mom stuffed thing

without even me noticing

thinking of giving a better variety

doesn’t quite like it

its acidity made my tummy hurts

yeah the slash of acid

I called it

 

and remember the episode of

Stephelle's Kitchen: POM!! Power-Oat-Milk

 

I always want to have warm hot milk

something cozy-homie while leaning on the sofa

watching The Breakfast Show

enjoying the sun from the balcony

OMG.. I know

I am such an idealist

 

hey… how about this

warm hot milk with black coffee

 

and this time round

I steamed my milk

instead of boiling it

because boiling it quite a waste

due to evaporation and

the residue stuck to the pan

 

so here I am

milk x coffee powder

 

therefore based on the chart

my Milkee Coffee can squeeze its way

into the Flat White tag

since it’s just coffee and steamed milk

well… not very authentic

but at least I was making something

which is similar to a variant which appear

on a proper coffee menu

my sense of direction in cooking,

is not so bad after all, huh

different types of coffee variations from espresso

 

breakfast time

it tastes smooth,

not so sweet

the coffee taste is less stimulating

that what I have imagined

I mean what do I expect

this is after all,

instant coffee powder

yeah… quite flat actually

does the authentic Flat White

supposed to taste something like this too?

as always, wholemeal bread

 

what is more important

it is warm and cozy

coffee to kick start the day

then spending the whole morning

researching on coffee

bravo!!!

 

thinking of experimenting

with the different type of coffee soon

especially haha the Italina Affogato

coffee with ice cream

yummylicous

 

and I just want to prove that

how the mega café chain

is overcharging you

for the so called authentic coffee

they are serving

 

happy experimenting !!
