Receta Viennese Mocha
Traditionally a "Vienna coffee" is the name of a popular traditional cream based coffee beverage. It is made by preparing two shots of espresso in a standard sized coffee cup and infusing the coffee with whipped cream (as a replacement for milk and sugar) until the cup is full. Then the cream is twirled and optionally topped off with chocolate sprinklings. The coffee is drunk through the cream top.
In this recipe I infused bittersweet chocolate to the coffee mixture, producing a rich bold beverage.
