Most common coffees

Expresso

The beans used to make espresso are finely ground, and they’re brewed with a higher grounds-to-water ratio than what’s used for a regular coffee. The result is a thicker, more concentrated liquid with a bolder flavor. It’s also the base for popular coffee-shop drinks like lattes and cappuccinos.

Americano

Order this drink and you’ll get a shot of espresso with some hot water.

Latte

This classic drink is typically 1/3 espresso and 2/3 steamed milk, topped with a thin layer of foam. Skilled baristas often swirl the foam into latte art!

Cappuccino

This espresso-based drink is similar to a latte, but the frothy top layer is thicker. The standard ratio is equal parts espresso, steamed milk, and foam, and can be topped with a sprinkling of cinnamon.

Mocha coffee

Sugar and chocolate flavor this sweet twist on the latte, usually in the form of cocoa powder, melted chocolate, or syrup.

Almond Cappuccino

Another espresso-based coffee, you will also need 1/4 – 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk, depending on how much milk you like in your coffee. 

Mint Latte

All you need is 5 ingredients: fresh mint, espresso, sugar, water, and ice!

Coffee Frappe

This word describes a variety of coffee and espresso drinks that have been blended with ice. So, the slushy-like drinks often contain some kind of milk and a flavored syrup, plus a top layer of whipped cream.

Iced coffee

Brew a regular cup of hot coffee, then cool it over ice. Finally, add whatever milk and sweeteners you like.
