Do you think Espresso and Whipped Cream is Gross ???

[Matthew David]

i say to each his own and drink what you love.

No way! I tried some amazing drinks (espresso + WC) in Vienna. I also make some myself. try the Austrian Einspanner (sweetened espresso +wiped cream). Occasionally, with friends, can be real fun. Checkout the attached picture.

[Andrew Olson]

[Banks Thomas]

I like whipped cream on my pie, not my espresso but that's just me.

[Chris Hooton]

For me it is the coldness of the whip cream that turns me off.

[John Berkness]

I frequent a shop that recently added the Con Panna to their menu. This was quite a shock, considering their menu only has the essential espresso beverages (ristretto, mach., cap, 8oz latte, 12oz mocha). I asked the barista about it, and she made one for me...not using "charged" or sweetened whipped cream; rather, they use cold heavy whipping cream, right out of the carton, and use one of those little milk frothing tools (the ones that spin really fast to create some texture), and then pour on top of the espresso, serving in a 3oz demi. With this method, the barista is able to pour latte art, and not screw up the espresso with all that sweetness.

That sounds like it would be worth trying. Did you like it?

As you know all too well, I am not the biggest fan of dairy. But, I did appreciate the texture and, I must admit, it tasted pretty good (this coming from a person who rarely even drinks a mach.).

I'd be curious to see what some of you think!
