Opis

Kafa kubano je klasični kubanski napitak koji se izdvaja po tome što je slatka, jaka i veoma aromatična. Osnovu čini espreso, a karakteristična je po tome što se šećer karamelizuje direktno u kafi, stvarajući gustu, svetlu penu koja se naziva espuma. Ovaj napitak je obično mali, ali intenzivan, jer se pije u manjim količinama, često kao jutarnji “podsticaj” ili nakon obroka. Kombinacija tamne, jake kafe i slatke pene daje prijatan kontrast ukusa i čini ga posebnom vrstom espresa koja se razlikuje od običnog slatkog espresa.

Description

Cubano coffee is a classic Cuban drink that stands out for being sweet, strong and very aromatic. The basis is espresso, and it is characterized by the fact that the sugar is caramelized directly in the coffee, creating a thick, light foam called espuma. This drink is usually small, but intense, because it is drunk in smaller quantities, often as a morning "stimulus" or after a meal. The combination of dark, strong coffee and sweet foam provides a pleasant flavor contrast and makes it a special type of espresso that is different from regular sweet espresso.
