Not all macchiatos are created equal. Order one at Starbucks, and you’ll likely get a sweetened latte topped with caramel drizzle. Order one at GROU Coffee, and you’ll taste the real deal.
A traditional Macchiato is a double shot of espresso, lightly “marked” with a splash of steamed milk. It’s bold, simple, and rooted in Italian coffee culture. No syrups. No extra sugar. Just coffee craftsmanship at its finest.
Starbucks has reinvented the Macchiato into something quite different — a tall, creamy drink loaded with milk, flavored syrups, and caramel or vanilla swirls. While it can be tasty, it’s far from the essence of the original espresso-forward beverage.
At GROU Coffee, we keep things authentic. Our baristas craft every Macchiato with fresh, hand-pulled espresso and just the right amount of milk to highlight — not hide — the coffee’s natural flavors.
