Cortado
Sign in to saveA cortado is a Spanish beverage consisting of espresso mixed with a roughly equal amount of warm milk to reduce the acidity, although the exact ratios have considerable regional variation. The milk in a cortado is steamed, but not frothy and "texturized" as in many Italian coffee drinks. The cortado is commonly served all over Spain. The word cortado is the past participle of the Spanish verb (), in the sense of to dilute, and can refer variously to either coffee or espresso drinks throughout Spanish- and Portuguese-speaking countries.

Un cortado est une sorte de café au lait d'origine espagnole. Cette boisson est composée d'un expresso mélangé avec une quantité à peu près égale de lait chaud pour réduire l'acidité. Le lait est, dans un cortado, cuit à la vapeur, mais pas aussi mousseux que dans beaucoup de boissons au café italiennes.
