Espresso with a touch of other flavors

I’m not actually big on adding all kinds of flavoring to Espresso drinks. Maybe a dash of chocolate from time to time, but that is about it.

It doesn’t mean my guests think the same way though. So, I started by adding flavors found at specialty stores. Here is a couple mixes I came across online to try out first… before I play too much on my ‘own’ creations:

Pumpkin Spice White Chocolate Mocha

1/4 oz White Chocolate Sauce
1 oz Monin Pumpkin Spice Syrup

8 oz steamed milks
Sprinkle of nutmeg or cinnamon (optional, for garnish)

1. Mix the white chocolate sauce and pumpkin spice syrup together in the bottom of your mug.
2. Pull your shots, add them to the sauces and swirl around a bit.
3. Pour in your steamed milk.
4. Garnish with a sprinkle of ground nutmeg or cinnamon.
