5.Cappuccino
A cappuccino basically is a coffee-based drink prepared with espresso, hot milk, and steamed milk foam. It is traditionally served in a porcelain cup, which has far better heat retention than glass or paper. The foam on top of the cappuccino acts as an insulator and helps retain the heat of the liquid, allowing it to stay hotter longer.
4.Greek-Turkish Coffee
What's the most interesting fact about this one is the dispute and constant fighting of the two countries, Greece and Turkey, about the origin of the specific coffee beverage.
3.Frappuccino
The USA is a country known for being a melting pot of different cultures, nationalities, races, and religions. Of course, food and drinks aren't an exception to this rule. In this case, the mixture of two great coffee beverages- Italian cappuccino and Greek Frappe- gave birth to frappuccino. Frappuccino is a trademarked line of blended coffee beverages sold by Starbucks, so in a few words, it's a coffee-celebrity. You can find a bottled beverage as well, called Frappuccino, which is sold in retail stores and vending machines. We must agree that some investors are really creative and they know how to impress young people. The experiment named Frappuccino is a total success and it has taken over (through Starbucks) the world. And hey, it tastes and looks good too.
2.Cafe au lait
A cafe au lait is traditionally the French way of preparing coffee with milk. The secret of a good French coffee is the coffee beans. You can brew anything in a French press, but you won't get great coffee out of it without great beans. If you put nasty coffee in, you'll get nasty coffee out, simple as that. What you need is coffee ground pretty coarsely. Once you have your coarsely ground coffee, use the scoop to put coffee in the press. If you really care about quality, then pre-heat the press by pouring hot water in it. Then pour in water just off the boil, add the cover, and wait for about five minutes. Then press the plunger down and pour the coffee out. Let it cool a little, add some good quality rich milk, some sugar, and enjoy!
1.Espresso
Espresso is exactly the opposite of cappuccino; it's for the "sprinters", the people who are rushing and all they want is to have a big dose of caffeine in their system, so they can fully wake up and start their day strong and full of energy.You will usually drink your espresso quickly as you are standing, since you generally don't have time for a good conversation with a friend if this is what you're drinking. Espresso has risen in popularity worldwide since the 80's, while it has been quite popular in Italy and Europe from way back and there are many variations of it. The main variables in a shot of espresso are the size and length. The size can be a single, double, or triple, while the length of the shot can be ristretto (restricted), normale (normal), or lungo (long). These correspond to a smaller or larger drink with the same amount of ground coffee and same level of extraction. Whoever is a big fan of the strong and bitter version of pure coffee will definitely enjoy and appreciate a good espresso.
