The results are the same, but this way you don't risk backflushing sugar into your water line which can affect subsequent drinks. -a Brittney–

I'll most likely even try it tomorrow, although it is a bit chilly outside. Oh well. :) so lemmie just make sure I got it straight .. you add the sugar After tamping? or do you settle it into the grind before you tamp? Thanks! I’m a barista and would love to make this drink!

It's viscosity will interfere with the water pressure, and it'll back up into your water lines which would cause a huge mess. If you want to try honey, mix it with the espresso in the cup right before adding cream. -a Mark–
