Cafe au Lait — The French breakfast classic: brewed coffee with warm milk, no espresso required.
What’s in a Cafe au Lait
Equal parts strong drip or French press coffee and steamed (or heated) milk.
How it tastes
Gentler and simpler than a latte — comforting rather than intense.
Good to know
In New Orleans it is famously made with chicory coffee and served with beignets.
