DID U KNOW? ? ? Hot coffee is


DID U KNOW? ? ?
Hot coffee is
brewed from coffee beans, the most popular varieties being from the Arabica and Robusta coffee plants.
You might drink plain black coffee, a cappuccino, a latte, a mocha, an espresso or one of the many other types.
1 An Affogato in Italian for "drowned" is a coffee based beverage or dessert. "Affogato style", which refers to the act of topping a drink or dessert with espresso, may also incorporate caramel sauce or chocolate sauce.
2 Caffè Americano or simply Americano is a style of coffee prepared by adding hot water to espresso. The strength of an Americano varies with the number of shots of espresso added.
3 A café au lait is traditionally the french way of preparing 'coffee with milk' both at home and in Cafés in Europe.
4 Caffè latte is a latte in a portion of espresso and steamed milk, generally in a 2:1 ratio of milk to espresso, with a little foam on top. It was popularized by large coffee chains such as Starbucks.
5 Caffè Marocchino is made from espresso, steamed milk, and a dusting of cocoa powder, similar to the espressino.
6 A café mocha is a variant of a caffè latte. Like a latte, it is typically one third espresso and two thirds steamed milk, but a portion of chocolate is added, typically in the form of a chocolate syrup.
7 A Cafe Zorro is a double espresso, to which hot water is added to 1:1 ratio.
8 Cappuccino is a coffee-based drink prepared with espresso, hot milk, and steamed milk foam. A cappuccino differs from a caffè latte in that it is prepared with much less steamed or textured milk than the caffè latte with espresso and milk/foam.
9 Espressino is made from espresso, steamed milk, and cocoa powder, similar to the Marocchino.
10 Irish coffee is coffee combined with whiskey and cream, often further sweetened with sugar. Also available as a flavor of ice cream.
11 A liqueur coffee, as its name suggests, is a coffee brew with a 25 ml shot of liqueur.
12 Espresso is black strong coffee.
