The crème de violette is essential for crafting a well-balanced frozen cocktail that, despite its colorful presentation, boasts a tartness from lemon juice that beautifully complements its floral sweetness.

The breve, an espresso-based drink akin to a latte, surprisingly transforms with half-and-half, enhancing texture and flavor while making it a richer, creamier choice.

The key to avoiding less-than-stellar iced tea is to make the flavor of the iced tea strong so that it doesn't fade when the tea is poured over ice.

Homemade hot chocolate, made with real melted chocolate, stands in stark contrast to store-bought mixes, offering a richer and more authentic taste experience.

While Nespresso doesn't stock branded chai capsules, you can safely use compatible pods from other sources, such as Amazon, saving you heaps of time. For example, OzPod chai tea capsules come in packs of 15 and can be slotted into a Nespresso machine in the same way as a regular coffee pod. All you need to do is add a dash of milk to your chai to create a creamy, fragrant beverage once your machine has worked its magic.
