Café con Leche (Coffee with Milk) vs Freddo Cappuccino: Iconic Greek Iced Coffee with Cold Foam

Both drinks start from a double shot of espresso and a measure of milk, yet they land in opposite places. Café con Leche pours milk heated until steaming over the espresso, letting the two meld into a warm, creamy, comforting cup. The Freddo Cappuccino instead stirs the hot espresso briskly with ice to chill it and soften its bitterness, then pours it over fresh ice and crowns it with thick, velvety cold milk foam, sipped unmixed through a straw so the layers stay distinct. Sugar is optional in each.
