How to Make a Delicious Pistachio Cream Espresso ☕️
Today, I’m sharing a recipe for a special espresso drink enhanced with a luxurious pistachio cream! You can easily create this cafe-quality beverage in the comfort of your own home.
Ingredients for Luscious Pistachio Cream- 50g animal-based whipping cream
- 18g high-quality pistachio puree
- 5g sugar (adjust to taste)
Cup Decoration Ingredients (Optional)- Dark chocolate, melted (as needed)
- Chopped hazelnuts (a small amount)
Base Ingredients- 2 shots of fragrant espresso
- A pinch of cocoa powder
- Dark chocolate, melted (as needed)
- Chopped hazelnuts (a small amount)
Base Ingredients- 2 shots of fragrant espresso
- A pinch of cocoa powder
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Carefully coat the rim of your serving glass with melted dark chocolate. This step is optional, but it adds a delightful sweetness and enhances the overall flavor experience.
Step 2
Before the chocolate hardens, gently press chopped hazelnuts onto the rim of the glass. The crunchy texture and nutty aroma of the hazelnuts will add another layer of appeal to your drink.
Step 3
In a bowl, combine 50g of cold animal-based whipping cream, 18g of smooth pistachio puree, and 5g of sugar. Using a good quality pistachio puree will ensure a deep and rich flavor.
Step 4
Using a mini electric frother, whip the mixture until it’s well combined and reaches a slightly thick consistency, similar to soft-serve ice cream. Avoid over-whipping; the cream should be pourable but hold its shape. This should take about 1 to 1.5 minutes.
Step 5
Pour 2 shots of freshly brewed, aromatic espresso into your prepared glass. The rich aroma of the espresso will awaken your senses.
Step 6
Gently spoon or pipe the prepared pistachio cream mixture over the espresso. Allow the cream to float on top, creating a beautiful layered effect.
Step 7
Finally, use a fine-mesh sieve to dust a small amount of cocoa powder over the pistachio cream. This adds a subtle bitter note that complements the sweetness of the cream and the richness of the espresso. Adjust the amount to your preference.
Step 8
Your delicious Pistachio Cream Espresso is now complete! Enjoy the harmonious blend of nutty pistachio cream and bold espresso. It’s a treat for both the eyes and the palate.
