Coffee lovers celebrated on March 11th when Google dedicated their Google Doodle Celebrates Flat White Coffee Doodle to the cherished flat white. The flat white’s transformation from a regional favourite to a worldwide sensation is indicative of how coffee culture is changing. It stands for the desire for a smoother, creamier coffee that is stronger. However, what is this creamy concoction and where did it originate? Let’s take a closer look at the history of flat whites and how to make the ideal cup as we explore this fascinating beverage.
How did Flat White come to be?
Australia and New Zealand are vying with one other to see who invented the flat white first, with both countries claiming credit for the creation in the 1980s. The history of the flat white can be summarised as follows, albeit there is no final answer:
Possible English Origins: Although it is not generally agreed upon, coffee historian Ian Bersten speculates that the flat white may have truly originated in England in the 1950s.
Australia in the 1980s: By 1983, cafes in Sydney were reportedly listing “flat white” on their menus. In 1985, Alan Preston, a barista, included it in his permanent menu.
In the 1980s, there were several claimants from New Zealand claiming the invention of the flat white. There are tales from baristas in Wellington and Auckland in the 1980s who invented the flat white, a coffee beverage with a smooth, microfoam layer.
Whatever its original origins, the flat white quickly became a mainstay of the café cultures of Australia and New Zealand. From then on, it became well-known everywhere and a favourite among aficionados of coffee.
According to Google Doodle, there is conjecture that the drink was initially offered in Australia and New Zealand in the 1980s, as it was discovered on menus in Sydney and Auckland at approximately the same period.
How Are You Going to Make Flat White?
Here’s a peek at the recipe for this delicious drink:
Espresso Base: To provide a rich and concentrated coffee flavour, the foundation is made from an espresso shot that has been carefully removed.
Micro-foamed Milk: The milk is what gives the flat white its distinctive texture. Perfectly steamed, it produces a silky microfoam studded with uniformly tiny bubbles.
The Perfect Pour is where the creativity of the barista really comes to life. Carefully covering the espresso, the microfoam forms a thin coating that is suitable for latte art.
