Barraquito: the typical coffee you order in La Palma

Il Barraquito: il tipico caffe che si ordina alla Palma

Barraquito: the typical coffee you order in La Palma.
Barraquito is an iconic drink of the Canary Islands, especially loved in La Palma. This multi-layered coffee is not only a delight for the palate, but also a pleasure for the eyes thanks to its unique presentation.
Barraquito, also known as “zaperoco” in some areas, originated in the Canary Islands and quickly spread thanks to its unique flavor and scenic preparation. It is made up of different layers that include condensed milk, espresso, liqueur (usually Licor 43), frothed milk and a sprinkling of cinnamon and lemon zest.

Ingredients and preparation:
To prepare a perfect barraquito, you will need:

– 1 tablespoon of condensed milk;
– 1 espresso;
– Frothed milk (preferably whole);
– Licor 43 or another vanilla liqueur;
– Lemon zest;
– Ground cinnamon.

The preparation requires care to keep the different layers distinct. You start by pouring the condensed milk into the bottom of a tall, clear glass, followed by the liqueur, then the espresso and finally the frothed milk. The final garnish with lemon zest and cinnamon adds an aromatic and visual touch.
Barraquito is more than just a drink; it is an experience that combines sweet and aromatic flavours with a touch of alcohol. It is perfect as a dessert after a meal or as an afternoon treat. If you are in La Palma, do not miss the opportunity to savour an authentic barraquito in one of the many local cafés.

Here is the official website: hofbraeu-muenchen.de.

Beer is an alcoholic beverage obtained from the fermentation of malted barley wort, flavored and bittered with hops. Beer is one of the most widespread and oldest alcoholic beverages in the world. It is produced through the alcoholic fermentation with strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae or Saccharomyces carlsbergensis of sugars derived from starchy sources, the most used of which is barley malt, or germinated and dried barley, often simply called malt. Wheat, corn, rice are also used - the latter two especially as additions in industrially produced beers - and, to a lesser extent, oats, spelt, rye. Other less used plants are cassava root, millet and sorghum in Africa, potatoes in Brazil and agave in Mexico.

Breakfast in a typical Vietnamese cafe

Colazione in un tipico caffe vietnamita

Breakfast in a typical Vietnamese cafe.
When I was in Vietnam last year with my wife, we had breakfast a few times in one of the many typical cafes.
They are meeting and relaxation places, often with a pond with carp, where people spend a couple of hours sipping the typical Vietnamese drink or (like me) a more Western cappuccino accompanied by a dessert.

Un tipico caffè vietnamita oppure un classico cappuccino?
In Vietnam cosa non mancano sicuramente sono le caffetterie. Il paese infatti è il secondo produttore al mondo di questa bacca (solo dopo al Brasile).
Ci sono decine di caffetterie artigianali ed altrettante decine di caffetterie di grandi marche (qui eravamo da Highlands Coffe) e in quasi tutte ti propongono sia il tipico caffè freddo vietnamita sia il classico cappuccino.
Mia moglie prende sempre il primo ed io il secondo!

Tuttavia, questo non è l’unico caffè bevuto dai vietnamiti. Infatti, in molti adorano la loro tazza di “ca phe nau” (il caffè con latte condensato, al sud chiamato anche “ca phe sua”) tanto quanto il tradizionale “ca phe den” (letteralmente: caffè nero).
