Among the most beloved coffee beverages in Spain is “café con leche,” which translates to “coffee with milk.” This drink is made with equal parts of espresso and steamed milk, creating a smooth and creamy experience.
Café con leche is a cornerstone of Spanish coffee culture, often enjoyed during breakfast. In the mornings, you might be asked if you prefer your milk hot or at room temperature. If you’re in a hurry, opt for “con la leche templada” (room temperature milk) to enjoy your drink immediately. If you have time to relax, “con la leche caliente” (hot milk) is a comforting choice.
To order it, you would say, “Me puede poner un café con leche, por favor.”
