I began working at Indigo Bridge Books early in 2009 and with the beginning of summer, I really delved into the world of coffee; the complexity and diversity that can be found in what some people may see as "just a cup of coffee". So here begins my journey and employment behind the coffee bar at Café Indigo. Everything I have learned about coffee thus far has been so fascinating. For instance, the difference between the method of brewing coffee and the way the bean is actually prepared makes a cup of coffee so much more meaningful . The menu can be kind of intimidating (at first,) but don't fret. There are a few things to keep in mind before you make your decision. Most of the drinks are made with espresso, which is a made to order, shot-sized coffee concentrate. You can drink espresso in a variety of ways. If you want it straight up, you would order an Espresso Ristretto. Macchiato in Italian means "marked" so you can think of this drink as a shot of espresso marked with a dollop of steamed milk. The Flat White is a drink from Australia which contains a shot of espresso in a 6 oz cup with steamed milk and very little foam. A Cappuccino is similar to the Flat White but it has more foam than the Flat White. There are many more great choices Café Indigo offers. You'll just have to keep up with the blog as I continue to update our readers on the drinks we serve.
Looking forward to seeing you in the store J
Peace,
The Latte Boy
