Einspanner (in German: Einspänner) is an Austrian coffee-style drink. A part of Vienna's cafés culture. The Einspanner is a variation of mocca, and is traditionally served in a glass with milk and whipped cream.
Background
[edit]Einspanner is a classical coffee drink that evolved in Vienna in the 19th century.
The origin of the name "Einspanner" is a carriage tied to a single horse, which is called an "Einspänner" in German. The einspanner carriage drivers used to hold their coffee in one hand, and the reins in the other.
Due to the thick layer of viscous whipped cream, thermic insulation occured, and the coffee stayed hot for a longer time and they could drink it while on breaks.
As a unique drink, it became popular in the cafés of Vienna, which were then centers of culture and social life, and a meeting spot for cultural individuals and scholars like Siegmund Freud, Franz Kafka and Leopold von Sacher-Masoch.
Preparation
[edit]It is traditional to make einspanner in a glass, with or without a handle. A dose of boiling mocca or espresso is added to the glass, then some milk, and covering it all a generous layer of whipped cream. It is traditional to sprinkle some powdered sugar over the whipped cream. In the "Dopletta Einspänner" variant there is a double dose of mocca in the coffee.
Traditionally, the Einspänner is not mixed, and the hot coffee is being drunk through the whipped cream. At times along with traditional austrian cakes, such as Sachertorte and Apfel Strudel.
