An espresso drink is a specialty coffee drink that includes one or more shots of espresso that are “pulled” on an espresso machine (espresso maker) like those from Saeco that uses pressurized extraction in order to force very hot water under very high pressure through a compressed (e.g., compacted, tamped) bed of roasted, ground coffee.
Don't have an espresso machine? Don't sweat it. Most of these specialty coffee and espresso recipes can substitute the espresso portion with 4 ounces of strong brewed coffee from a french press, pour over or other drip coffee maker.

What few people realize is that any coffee bean can be used to make an espresso shot and therefore used in an espresso-based drink recipe. Espresso is typically a very dark roast, but can also be a medium or regular dark roast. What is important at the end of the day is ensuring you have the right grind for your equipment, which involves selecting an appropriate coffee grinder.
Espresso serves as the foundation for a wide variety of the best specialty coffee drinks, which are commonly known as espresso drinks and are popular in coffee houses around the world.
Some special "espresso blends" make use of single origins that are known to have a bold, dark flavor such as the Sumatra coffee bean, blended with a robusta that is typically seen as a lower quality bean but is known to produce a better crema and contain more caffeine.
Ninja Coffee Bar Recipes
Any of our recipes here can be made using the Ninja Coffee Bar, by substituting 2-oz of espresso for a 4-oz strong-brewed coffee with the Ninja Coffee Bar. The built-in frother makes steaming and frothing milk - an essential part of most coffee recipes - a breeze.
The Ninja Coffee Bar is also able to handle the iced coffee recipes thanks to the "brew over ice" option plus combined with an XL-sized brew.
The Best Espresso Drink Recipes
The most well-known and best espresso drinks include the Cappuccino, Latte (Caffe Latte), and Mocha (Caffe Mocha), although there are many more, and everyone seems to have their own personal favorite recipe which they like prepared in their own special way (e.g., half-caf, non-fat, extra shot mocha, no whip).
Many people enjoy their espresso drinks with a snack, and the most traditional foods to accompany espresso and espresso-based drinks are biscotti and brioche, perhaps a croissant, or an Italian desert such as gelato, sorbetto, or affogato. Check out recipes for these tasty foods in our Espresso Cuisine section.
Espresso Recipes - Below are detailed instructions on how to prepare the following Espresso Drinks.
AMERICANO / CAFFE AMERICANO
To make an Americano, or Caffe Americano, pulling a single shot of espresso and then add about 6 ounces of hot water—the strength should be similar to drip filter coffee.

To make a Black and White, pour one-half of an ounce of milk or vanilla schnapps into a shot glass and then pour one-half ounce of coffee liquor atop the drink.

BREVE (Espresso Breve)

CAFE AU LAIT (Café Au Lait)
This delicious French coffee drink recipe is prepared using strongly brewed coffee (French Press is best) or espresso served in a large, bowl-shaped cup (a white porcelain cup or bowl is best) along with heated milk or steamed milk but not foam.
The hot milk is traditionally served in a separate pitcher, and then when everything is ready and proper, mix equal amounts of the two ingredients to taste.
The open-mouthed cup or bowl-shaped cup enhances the beverage, and is also great for warming you hands on those chilly winter days. Another benefit of a large porcelain cup is that it is great for dipping your brioche or croissant, if you are a dipper.
See the Espresso Coffee Guide's tasty brioche recipe to make your own for the perfect Cafe Au Lait experience.
Cafe Au Lait means “coffee with milk.” The French Cafe Au Lait is analogous to the Italian Caffe Latte.
CAFE BOMBON (Café Bonbon)
To make this Spanish drink, pull one shot of espresso into a small glass, then pour in an equal amount of condensed milk. The two liquids should stay separated until stirred. The French term Cafe Bonbon means “Candy Coffee.” See: How to Make a Cafe Bombon Recipe.
CAFECITO / CAFE CUBANO / ESPRESSO CUBANO
Also known as Cuban Coffee and Un Cafecito, Cafe Cubano is typically twice as strong as American coffee. Cafe Cubano is very popular in Cuba and among the United States Cuban American community (e.g., in Miami).
Commonly served in thimble-sized paper cups, Cuban coffee is often served at the end of a meal in tiny cups called tacitas, which are even smaller than demitasse cups.
The traditional method of making a Cafe Cubano is using a pot on the stove though Cubans in the United States often use stovetop espresso makers.
When you order Cafe Cubano drinks for a group it is known as a colada.
To prepare a Cafe Cubano pour ice-cold water into the espresso maker (e.g., pot on stove) and fill it with the espresso beans.
Screw the espresso pot together and place it on the stove burner. Place approximately two teaspoons of sugar into your cup and then when the coffee begins percolating pour a bit into your cup to moisten the sugar into a paste.
When the coffee has finished brewing, slowly pour some into the cup and gently mix it with the sugary paste—this should create a foam. Now add the rest of the coffee.
Also see: Cuban Coffee - Coffees of Cuba.
CAFE CON LECHE (Café Con Leche)

CAFFE LATTE (Caffé Latte)

As you pour the steamed milk into the cup use a spoon to hold back the foam until the cup is more than ¾-full. Now top it off with a small cap of foam.
Rather than pouring the milk onto the espresso, gourmet coffee lovers often prefer to pour the espresso and steamed milk from either side of the glass simultaneously
The term caffe latte comes from the Italian “caffe e latte,” which means “coffee and milk—this drink is analogous to the French Cafe Au Lait. Lattes are often flavored with sweet Italian syrups like hazelnut, almond, and other nut flavors.

The term Mocha is also spelled Moka, and originally referred to a particular variety of coffee which itself was named after a Yemen port near a traditional and renown coffee-growing region.
CAFE NOISETTE (Café Noisette)
To prepare a Cafe Noisette (pronounced Nwah-Zhet), pull a shot of espresso and then add just a small amount of milk. Noisette means hazelnut and refers to the drink's color.
CAPPUCCINO
To make this Italian beverage pull one or two shots of espresso into a Cappuccino. Now add about twice as much steamed milk as there is espresso, and then top it off with foam.

Optional garnishes include a sprinkle of ground chocolate, cinnamon, nutmeg, powdered cocoa, or vanilla powder. A request for a “dry cappuccino” means add more foam than usual, while “wet cappuccino” means add more milk. “Bone dry” means no milk (fill it with foam).
The foam of a cappuccino should be wet and velvety, mixing naturally with the pour, and not simply sitting atop the drink like a large, bubbled meringue. For detailed directions see the Barista Guide To Perfect Lattes and Cappuccinos.

An Espresso Lungo is also called Long Shot.
ESPRESSO MACCHIATO
To make an Espresso Macchiato pull a single shot of espresso “macchiato” (marked with) about 1½ tablespoons (a dollop) of foam. Some people instead prefer just a dash of steamed milk or cream. An Espresso Macchiato should be served in a demitasse. Some large chains such as Starbucks use a slightly different definition for their "Macchiato".
ESPRESSO RISTRETTO
To make an Espresso Ristretto, or “Short Shot,” (ristretto means restricted), pull one shot of espresso, but only put about half as much water as usual into the espresso machine (instead of 1-½ ounces of water, just use ¾-ounce).
The water should dispense through the espresso grounds in about 18-20 seconds compared to the normal 22 seconds, and the grind size used should be even finer than usual. The slower extraction can also be accomplished by pressing or tamping the coffee down with extra pressure in the portafilter.
Sweeter and more flavorful than a full shot, the Espresso Ristretto renders a thicker, stouter drink, emphasizing the intense espresso taste. The restricted extraction is meant to extract only the best qualities of the coffee and none of the bitter elements, with about the same amount of caffeine, creating a richer beverage that is more intense.
It should be noted that preparing a high quality ristretto is a bit tricky because there is a fine balance between making a perfect ristretto and simply stalling an espresso machine.
In Europe a ristretto is the preferred shot. Also called Short-Pull Espresso.
