Milk Matters - How Quality Elevates Coffee Drinks

The quality of milk used in coffee shops significantly impacts the overall beverage experience, especially for milk-based drinks where milk is the main ingredient. High-quality milk is essential not only for the ethical treatment of animals and adherence to health standards but also for achieving the perfect microfoam in beverages like lattes. Both protein and fat content in milk contribute to the stability and texture of foam. With the rise in popularity of plant milks, barista-formulated versions have been created to mimic the foaming properties of cow's milk, ensuring a creamy texture and compatibility with coffee's flavor profiles. Whether dairy or plant-based, the emphasis on higher-quality milk in coffee shops can lead to improved customer satisfaction and enhance the visual and taste appeal of the beverages.
