According to the well-referenced tome, <em>Coffee: A Connoisseur\u2019s Companion<\/em>, Johan Nieuhof, the Dutch ambassador to China at the time was the first person to add milk to coffee. This trend later continued in Europe, where milk added to coffee became the norm. Fast-forward to the present day and the penchant for a milky coffee continues. In fact, statistics show that in many western countries the most popular coffee is a latte \u2013 which just happens to be the milkiest of the lot.<\/p>\n<p>According to data from Nespresso, three quarters of coffee drinkers globally enjoy a white coffee. And at home, it\u2019s recorded that 70% of South Africans prefer their coffee with milk.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s figures like these that drove the pioneering coffee brand to create its new Nespresso Barista Creations range. The development team \u2013 comprising coffee roasters, sensory experts, professional baristas, food scientists and engineers \u2013 embarked on numerous trials to perfect a milky coffee. Looking at the way that milk interacts with coffee, they experimented with 18 coffee origins from around the world, tested around 20 000 cappuccinos, and eventually refined the ideal blends.<\/p>\n<p>More than just enjoying milk in your coffee these days, the type of milk is just as pivotal. And with the popularity of dairy-free milk alternatives continuing to rise, this is an important factor that cannot be overlooked. From the increase in consumers adopting vegan diets and concerns about antibiotics present in some dairy products, to those who have been diagnosed as lactose intolerant, there are many reasons that the switch to plant milks has sky-rocketed. A few years ago, soya milk, and then almond milk, were the only two alternatives readily available in supermarkets, but nowadays you can pick up anything from hazelnut to oat milk.<\/p>\n<p>The folk at Nespresso took this into consideration when creating the new blends too. So, no matter your preference, the Barista Creations range works equally well with all milk types \u2013 whether full-fat cow\u2019s milk is still your favourite, or you\u2019ve opted for a plant-based alternative.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Fast Facts<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>*1 October is International Coffee Day<\/p>\n<p>*According to the International Coffee Organization, global coffee consumption\u00a0in\u00a02018\/19 grew by an estimated 2.1% to 164.84 million bags.<\/p>\n<p>*&#8217;Cappuccino&#8217; takes\u00a0its name\u00a0from the Capuchin friars: the colour of the espresso mixed with frothed milk was similar to the colour of the Capuchin robe. The Capuchin friars are members of the larger Franciscan orders of monks, and their order was founded in the 16th century in Italy. (Merriam-Webster)<\/p>\n<p>*Legend has it that a previous owner of The Caffe Mediterraneum in Berkeley (California), Lino Meiorin, &#8220;invented&#8221; the latte and made\u00a0it a standard drink in the 1950s. The\u00a0latte\u00a0was popularised in Seattle in the early 1980s and spread more widely in the early 1990s.
