Dissolving Espresso Stick
Coffee connoisseurs who are far too picky to ever drink instant coffee or espresso may at least be satisfied with the visual presentation of this ‘espresso stick‘ as a quick, on-the-go option for imbibing caffeine. This concept by Heo Jeong Im blends milk, espresso and sugar in stir sticks with dissolvable ends. How it would taste is anyone’s guess, but at least it looks cool.
