Coffee is a word that we borrowed from the Arabic word qahwah, which means power. In my opinion, that's one of the best ways to describe coffee's nature. Coffee has become one of the most widely-consumed drinks around the world and is a part of popular culture and social life. It's the ideal drink to start the day with when you need pure energy. It's also the perfect drink to keep you company when you are working, or to join the party when chatting with friends and family. Coffee is also the best "friend" of a cigarette. Every smoker I know could verify that there's no better company for their smokes than a good cup of coffee.
10.Coffee milk
Coffee milk is a drink consisting of coffee-flavored milk, similar to chocolate milk. The main difference is that instead of chocolate syrup, coffee syrup is used. Coffee milk was introduced to Rhode Island, USA, sometime back in the early 30's of the 20th century. When I first ordered it, the waitress seemed confused: "Do you mean that thick liquid coffee- flavored syrup that you mix with milk, sir? Just like we do when we make chocolate milk with NestleQuick, right?" My answer was "I guess" but I don't regret it though; it was somewhat of a drink experience. Just a little too sweet for my taste.
9.Caffè Marocchino
Don't let the name of this coffee to deceive you. Caffè Marocchino is a coffee drink created in Italy, not Morocco as many people might think by the sound of its name. It is served in a small glass and consists of a shot of espresso, cocoa powder and milk froth. It's sweeter and softer in taste than a plain espresso, no doubt about that. In some regions of Italy, thick hot cocoa is added, which makes it even sweeter and thicker. The name Marocchino is derived from its color, as Marocchino was a type of light brown leather, used to make hair bands. If you never get a chance to find a place that serves the specific coffee drink, then just try an Espressino. It's pretty much the same thing.
8.Vietnamese Iced Coffee
This coffee beverage is kind of similar with the Greek Frappe. In some countries it's more popular and known as Ca phe da, and the name simply suggests its traditional Vietnamese roots. Ca phe da is made with finely ground Vietnamese-grown dark roast coffee, separately brewed with a small metal French drip filter into a cup containing about a half as much sweetened condensed milk, stirred and poured over ice. Coffee was introduced into Vietnam by the French colonists and the French influence is pretty obvious. The usage of sweetened condensed milk, just like the original recipe requested, started only because there were limitations to the availability of fresh milk in Vietnam back in the 19th century, when this specific coffee beverage was introduced from the French to the Vietnamese. If you are looking for new coffee experiences, you should definitely go for it.
7.Irish Coffee
There are a few different recipes of making an Irish coffee, but I can only talk from my own experience and how I usually enjoy it when I visit my favorite local Irish Pub. It is so good that I had to ask the owner for the exact recipe, and for my good luck, he didn't bother to give it to me.In a coffee mug, you add a tablespoon of brown sugar in the bottom. Add a shot of preferably a nice Scots or Irish whiskey. Then you must fill the mug with hot coffee. Now for the end you can float a dollop of whipped cream on top of the coffee and you won't regret it. Simply delicious!
6.Frappé
Greek frappé is a foam-covered iced coffee drink, made from spray-dried instant coffee. It is very popular in Greece and Cyprus, but has now spread to other countries as well. It has been a big hit in New York and Melbourne for a couple of years now, thanks to the Greek Diaspora in those cities. It's a favorite summer drink and a very cool refresher on a hot day for coffee lovers. Millions of tourists who visit the Greek islands every summer fall in love with this coffee. It's easy to make, using instant coffee and while it can be whipped, the traditional version is shaken, never stirred. All you need is a shaker, add about 2 or 3 tablespoons of cold water, 1 teaspoon of instant coffee, and 2 or 3 of sugar. Be sure you close tightly and shake until you see only foam, which is usually about 25-30 seconds. Then add about a cup of water, a few ice cubes (3-4), a little milk and stir it all up. Serve always with a straw and you are ready to go.
