Question

Which of these coffee drinks doesn't necessarily contain milk?

Option 1: Latte
Option 2: Cappuccino
Option 3: Americano
Option 4: Macchiato

Answer 1

An 3. Americano, which is espresso shots mixed with hot water, does not necessarily contain milk unlike a Latte, Cappuccino, or Macchiato which typically include milk.

Step-by-step explanation:

The coffee drink that doesn't necessarily contain milk is the 3. Americano. An Americano consists of espresso shots diluted in hot water, often enjoyed for its rich flavor without the inclusion of milk.

In contrast, a Latte is predominantly made of steamed milk and a small amount of espresso, a Cappuccino typically has equal parts espresso, steamed milk, and milk foam, and a Macchiato usually contains a bit of milk, typically foamed, marked atop a shot of espresso.
