Cafe Cubano Latte Homemade Liquid Coffee Creamer Recipes

CAFE CUBANO LATTE (HOMEMADE LIQUID COFFEE CREAMER)

Steps:

• Thoroughly combine two cans of milk, use water to rinse out the cans and add vanilla extract. Serve with your preferred brew. Refrigerate if you drink a lot of coffee in your house or if you have company. Or freeze in ice cube containers for individual use.

CUBAN COFFEE (CAFECITO)

Steps:

• Fill a 6-cup stovetop espresso maker with water and coffee according to the manufacturer's instructions, making sure to pack down the coffee. Place the espresso maker over moderate heat.
• While the coffee is brewing, place the sugar in a tall container with a spout, such as a liquid measuring cup. As soon as the coffee starts to fill the reservoir, pour about 1/2 tablespoon of coffee over the sugar and return the espresso maker to the heat.
• Using a spoon, beat the sugar and espresso until the mixture turns a pale beige color and most of the sugar granules begin to dissolve, about 1 minute. The mixture may seem a bit dry at first, but keep beating, and it will come together.
• Once all the coffee has been brewed, slowly pour the coffee over the creamed sugar, stirring to make sure all the sugar dissolves. A thin layer of sugar foam (crema) should float on top of the coffee. Pour the coffee into espresso cups and serve immediately.
