Between Sobriety and Intoxication: The Fascinating Journey of Sauce-Flavored Latte

School of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering, Huazhong University of Science and Technology, Wuhan, 430074

Received Date: 12 December 2023
Revised Date: 2 February 2024

Drawing inspiration from the recent trend of Sauce-Flavored Latte, this paper ingeniously explores the dual narrative of “wine meets coffee”, unraveling the anthropomorphic tale of ethanol and caffeine. Delving into their chemical properties, physiological mechanisms, and metabolic pathways, the narrative aims to enlighten readers about the underlying chemistry and health implications, enabling a more informed and moderate consumption of beverages.
