Raf is a coffee drink that is prepared in many establishments. It was invented in the late 90s in Moscow.
Rafael, a regular visitor to the Coffee Bean coffee shop, is fed up with classic coffee drinks. The guest asked me to do something special for him. The barista added cream and vanilla sugar to the espresso.
The recipe quickly gained popularity among other visitors to the cafe; they asked the barista to prepare a drink “like Raf’s”.
Therefore, a delicious, well-known coffee cocktail appeared.
Today, raff, in addition to the classic, has many flavors: salted caramel, lavender, citrus, pistachio. In the article, we will talk about a coffee drink.
The drink will appeal to lovers of sweets. Vanilla sugar is placed in the classic raff, and syrups and sweet preparations are used in author's recipes. For example, homemade salted caramel.
Unlike cappuccino, the taste of raff is more delicate and resembles a French creme brulee dessert. Cream with a fat content of 10% is added to the drink, which makes it more nutritious than others do - by about 300 kcal.
