Two ristretto shots meet a small splash of steamed milk in a short glass, so the coffee stays compact and strong with only a little milkiness. In McDonald's coffee range, it sits between a straight espresso and a full latte, using less milk than a regular latte and a smaller serve overall. Texture comes from the steamed milk rather than much foam, and it's usually served hot for an immediate, concentrated hit of coffee. For anyone who finds a full latte too milky but wants something smoother than a straight espresso, this is the middle ground. It's one of the smaller drinks on the McCafe menu, and it moves quickly from counter to hand. Expect strong coffee flavour with just enough milk to take the edge off.
