Gibraltar

I went into Square One Coffee, at 145 North Duke Street here in Lancaster, and tried one of their specials called a "Gibralter".

A double shot of "COLD" Restretto (think about a quintuple strength espresso)
Milk heated up to 'just shy' of 120 degrees.
All poured into an over sized shot glass, and placed on a saucer.

It's like a "Luke warm" cappuccino, only better!

There is NO need for sugar, as the natural sweetness of the milk is more than enough to carry this drink to perfection.

I would highly recommend this drink to ANY coffee lover. A light to medium roast coffee is the base, and it's absolutely delicious. It's not too hot, and not too cold. It's a good coffee to have, when Fall temperatures start to kick in, or Summer's heat is too high for a 'regular cup of joe'.

For my next "Gibralter", I MIGHT try it with a touch of cinnamon, just to complement the yummy finish of this wonderful concoction.
