Cortado

So, you want more espresso flavor than the taste of milk... yet, get more balance than a macchiato? Well, you might want to try a Cortado. It's like a mini cappuccino with almost equal parts espresso and steamed regular milk or soy milk. The balance allows the full body of the espresso to mix with the soft feel of the milk.

Maria, one of Root Hill's owners, really loves this drink and says:
"I like the strength of our 
espresso
 coming through a cortado with soy milk. The nuttiness of the soy milk highlights the nuttiness in the 
espresso
." 
Check out how we make one of Maria's favorite drinks:

First, one of our marvelous barista's, like Natasha, loads the espresso...
Then, we pull a shot...
mmmh... delicious espresso ...
Next, the soy milk is steamed...
 The soy milk is then added to the espresso...
Finally, the Cortado is ready for you to enjoy!

Try one today... they're delightful!
