Have you heard about almond milk and coffee, but you don\u2019t know how to get a tasty and enjoyable drink?<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Among the <\/span>perfect combinations with coffee<\/b>, the one with almond milk is one of the most popular and requested versions.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The fresh and sweetened taste of the almond syrup enhances the <\/span>intense and rich taste of the espresso<\/b>, leaving a pleasant and lasting sensation in the palate.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Almond milk <\/b>is a tasty alternative to whole milk. It is suitable for many sweet and aromatic recipes, both cold and hot. It is a perfect choice for a <\/span>long cold brew<\/b>, for a <\/span>caff\u00e8 shakerato<\/b><\/a> or for a <\/span>Milk coffee<\/b>.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

But to make the right mix, it is necessary to know the procedures and the proportions between the ingredients well, so that the flavours are well balanced, and no one prevails over the other.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A great suggestion comes from the Apulian tradition. The <\/span>espresso Leccese<\/b> is a very popular drink in Puglia, where <\/span>coffee and almond<\/b> milk<\/b> are expertly mixed with ice-cubes.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

As well as for its fresh taste, the <\/span>almond milk in the cappuccino or in the coffee<\/b> can be used as a cow milk substitute, especially for those who are lactose intolerant or allergic and also, for those who prefer a lighter and more digestible summer drink.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The real secret for a great drink is that the <\/span>coffee is artfully prepared<\/b>. You can obtain a great espresso with the <\/span>Pontevecchio\u2019s professional coffee machine<\/a><\/b> just like the coffee made in Lecce\u2019s bars and prepare your <\/span>coffee and almond <\/b>milk-based <\/b>drink<\/b> at home t<\/span>oo<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let us see how.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why it is called espresso Leccese<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"caff\u00e8<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

There are several theories about the <\/span>origin of the espresso Leccese<\/b>. One of the most accredited is that <\/span>iced coffee<\/b><\/a> with almond milk was created in Lecce.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In fact, having a thirst-quenching drink while walking around the baroque city during the hot Salentine afternoons is a real pleasure. But before the spread of refrigerators and freezers, it was really difficult to have ice at home. Residents, therefore, went to bars to cool off with a coffee made with pickaxe ice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The addition of almond milk was a need to make the drink lighter and sweeter, without adding sugar or other sweeteners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another version tells that this popular <\/span>espresso leccese<\/span><\/i> comes from Valencia. It seems to have arrived in Puglia in the seventeenth century and to have been known as <\/span>\u201cCaf\u00e9 del tiempo<\/strong><\/a>\u201d. <\/span><\/i>The original recipe was with a lemon slice that was soon replaced by the sweet taste of almond.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Which are the ingredients<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

There are only three ingredients in the <\/span>espresso leccese recipe<\/b>.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n
