Method
Prepare a soft espresso of about 40 ml ("Espresso" recipe), slightly longer than usual, in a medium cup.
It vaporizes milk up to 55-65 ° C with a dense foam.
Add the same volume of milk as coffee and end with a foam layer.
Serve it, like in Vienna, in a little bandejite with a glass of water.
Tips and warnings
Melange means "mix." If you change the foam to the cream, it's called "Franziskaner" in Vienna.
