3 Short Macchiato

Melbourne, Australia

"Macchiato" simply means, "marked" or "stained," and in the case of caffè macchiato,
this means literally "espresso stained/marked with milk."
Traditionally it is made with one shot of espresso, and the small amount of added milk was the "stain."

That looks simply delicious. I like a dab of sugar in my expresso too.
