Flat white is an espresso-based coffee drink made with a double shot of espresso and a smaller volume of steamed whole milk, resulting in a stronger coffee flavour than a latte. It originated in Australia and New Zealand and is now a standard menu item in most specialty coffee shops worldwide, typically served in a 150–180 ml cup. Per 100 g, a flat white provides 60 kcal, 3.2 g of protein, 3 g of fat and 4.8 g of carbohydrates, with virtually all of the carbohydrate coming from naturally occurring milk sugars (4.5 g) and no dietary fibre. It contributes 110 mg of calcium, 150 mg of potassium and 0.4 mcg of vitamin B12 per 100 g. No glycemic index value is available for this drink. Suitable for vegetarian, pescatarian, gluten-free, Mediterranean and low-FODMAP dietary patterns.
