National Café au Lait Day
February 17, Saturday
National Café au Lait Day is celebrated annually on February 17 in the United States to celebrate one of the most popular coffee drinks — latte. On this day, coffee lovers can enjoy its smooth taste and celebrate the art of coffee craftsmanship, because making a latte is a real art, where both technique and presentation are important.The word "latte" comes from the Italian language and literally means "coffee with milk" (caffè latte). A classic latte is made from one shot of espresso and hot milk, with a small amount of milk foam added on top. Thanks to its smooth taste and harmonious combination of coffee and milk, latte is popular all over the world.
This day is a great reason to treat yourself to a delicious latte, learn more about its preparation and, perhaps, try something new, for example, making a latte at home or mastering the elements of latte art.
