Laccino is pretty great all year

These are the laziest Pokemon designs I have ever seen.

Palworld thread is that way, friend ->

Why is chocolate milk on this graphic but not regular (non-espresso) coffee? The chocolate milk is the only thing without espresso in it.

There is no "non-espresso" coffee in Italy. You're basically describing how the Americano came to be.
- If that's the reason, I guess the graphic would be better labeled as "Drinks available in Italian cafes".
- Do they call chocolate milk a type of coffee in Italy?
I don't understand what you mean by "regular (non-espresso) coffee".
- Espresso is coffee brewed by forcing water through the grounds at high pressure. As opposed to "regular" coffee made in something like a drip coffee maker, pour over cone, or French press.
- Sounds like you either don't like strong flavors, or haven't had good espresso. Modern espresso even can have paper filters.
- Eh, nothing beats my own mix of barley coffee and tea leafs.
- Espresso is so much better. The coffee is more full-bodied, smooth, and nuanced. You must not have had good espresso.
  Drip coffee is just dirty water.
because regular coffee is for peasants. it's so god awful that hot chocolate is better.

My favorite coffee is chocolate milk

What they've called a "Glace" I've always heard called Affogato

Same here. Occasionally served with liqueur, something like Kahlua or Bailey's.
What did you just call me?

Flat white crew represent

I used to be all about a latte macchiato with an extra shot, then I got hooked on café con leche. After I returned home I found out a flat white is as close as you can get, without being a jerk who explains their custom order to every barista.
- Café de Olla, try it.
First time trying a flat white my wife and I had an epiphany. We always ordered cappuccino but didn't care about the foam. Now it's our go to coffee, unless I need to get a real energy boost. In that case ristretto or espresso with sugar is my go to.

Vietnamese Iced Coffee (Cà Phê Sữa Dá)


Ice
Ice
Ice
Coconut milk
Condensed milk
Espresso

I've personally have never heard of coconut milk in cà phê sữa đá (iced [condensed] milk coffee) before.
You must be thinking about cà phê dừa (coconut coffee), which usually has coconut milk and condensed milk
Though a hot small cup of cà phê trứng (egg coffee) is the best. You beat egg yolk into condensed milk and sugar, and then pour it into coffee. And it's so nice and creamy
- You're probably right, as I don't speak Vietnamese. This is how they made the White Coffee I ordered here last week

Hate it when I order a Ristretto but the waiter brings an espresso. Great, now I am 5% more energized than I wanted to be

I know this is a joke but as a burgeoning espresso snob, I can’t help myself from explaining:
A ristretto’s importance is in its stronger coffee flavor. It’s the same amount of coffee, but with less water run through the grounds. In a standard espresso, that last little bit of coffee added beyond a ristretto pull is much more watery, and so it mellows out the flavor. A ristretto is sharper and more of a punch. In my opinion, its most effective use is in a flat white, in which the aim is to remove as much water from the equation as possible and really let the coffee flavor shine through into the smaller amount of milk. Both ingredients’ flavors are more apparent in a flat white than in, say, a latte, which is in some regards a watered down flat white.

Neat. This has more than one seen on other charts. I guess only Italian variations, though? I was looking for cortado, but it's Spanish. It's most similar to the flat white but with 50/50 espresso and milk

They missed mine,

2tsp dark brown sugar 8 drops of vanilla extract 1/2 tsp chocolate powder 4 shots espresso made with the other ingredients already in the cup Lightly stir

Also known as rocket fuel
- Never heard of it. Convergent evolution at work!
  Espresso is good but how about a little sweetener...tried a few things landed on not just brown sugar but dark brown sugar. Mocha is good so let's try chocolate powder too, dialed it in. Vanilla is nice with both brown sugar and chocolate let's at that too.
  I might try a sprinkle of powdered salt on top next

The Irish Coffee is wrong though. The whiskey goes in first, then the coffee.

That appears to be what it says, but the legend's colors are very close.
- If the colors are reversed then it's waaaay too much whiskey 😄

Cool graphic. Thanks for posting it.

I'm an Americano dude, myself.

Try titrating your way down slowly to a lungo, I bet you won't be disappointed once you get there.

Is the only difference between a Con Panna and a Vienna Coffee the size of the cup?

Here’s a blog that explains, and basically yes: https://www.brewcoffeehome.com/espresso-con-panna/

Wait, it's all just espresso?

Chocolate milk.

Excuse me I specifically asked for a cappuccino, and this tastes like a cafe latte

I thought a latte was supposed to have steamed milk and a cappuccino had frothed milk...
- A shorthand I was taught is "latte = a lot-tae of milk", otherwise same ingredients I guess.

Lungo is my jam.

Where is Turkish coffee?

Probably in Turkey.
- No, its in Greece

Is a Romano as unpleasant as it looks? I'm having a hard time understanding the appeal.

Many coffees have a natural fruitiness, and lemon helps to bring it out.
Citrus & coffee is a fantastic combo. My go to in summer is espresso, ice water and a hefty squeeze of lemon. Super refreshing, and a nice amount of sweetness without being too syrupy (or too unhealthy).
i can imagine a drop of lemon in a bitter coffee may balance it a bit. and the aroma combo isnt bad.

Espresso gang

I like the graphic but it needs to expand beyond espresso.

Cafezinho: Boil water and sugar, add coffee grounds, strain and serve.

Turkish coffee: Like cafezinho but not strained. Optionally add cardamom.

Cowboy coffee / backpacker's special: Cheap coarse-ground coffee, boiled and served unstrained. A little chewy but it does the job.

Junkie coffee: Snort a line of ground coffee, inject some hot water into your forearm
Martian coffee: Hot water with a vicodin crushed up in it
Did not know the cardamom was optional for Turkish coffee. Hard to imagine it without that

Entering this comment section:

Uhh, do they really put THAT MUCH honey in an espresso drink?!

I saw something on YouTube about pulling a shot of espresso and then adding ice and I think a little water and using the steam wand on this mix. You end up with a nitro coffee like drink. Might have to try it.

Ah don't know about you Yoo-rope-Ian types but ah likes coffee in mah coffee

spits

An old article, but seems mildly interesting as well: https://viennawurstelstand.com/article/13-different-kinds-of-coffee-found-in-viennas-coffeehouses/

That Mead Raf looks delicous!!

Dirty Americano = shot of espresso, don't remove grounds and run a second shot (two shots of water through the same grounds)
