The habit of drinking coffee in various countries
People in different countries drink coffee in different ways, but if you ask how many ways there are to drink coffee, I'm afraid no one can make it clear. It can be said that there are as many ways to drink coffee as there are countries in the world. One third of the people in the world drink coffee, but it seems that no two countries drink coffee in the same way. People in Arab countries like to drink small glasses of Sweet Caffe. At breakfast in France, the French like to drink coffee from a bowl and use chicory root to blend the fragrance. Compared with Italians, French people generally prefer weak coffee. This kind of coffee is generally made from moderately roasted and coarsely ground coffee beans by soaking. Dutch Dutch people like strong coffee. Coffee and sugar are put in a pot with a can of cream and a glass of water. Russia Russia is a country that drinks tea. But when they drink coffee, they will choose black coffee with sugar and a small piece of lemon. This coffee tastes strong and calm. South India People in South India are keen on coffee with a lot of milk and sugar, because drinking this kind of coffee can help relieve the taste stimulation after eating spicy food. Sudanese people are used to pouring black coffee into coffee pots and adding cloves and other spices. Because Turkish coffee is cooked with coffee powder, there will be a lot of coffee powder in the coffee, so when tasting it, after the coffee powder is precipitated, taste it gently. Turks will also use coffee grounds stuck in coffee cups to predict the future. Turkish coffee is made by boiling good coffee beans, sugar and water in a container called "Ibrik". This kind of coffee has a strong taste. Americans like lightly roasted coffee with a little cream. People in the Middle East are obsessed with the basic drinking method. They deeply roast coffee beans until they are close to DarkRoast, usually grinding them into very fine powder, then boiling them several times and adding sugar to make a small cup of very strong, bitter and sweet coffee with precipitation. People sipped this small cup of coffee with elegant and polite attitude. People in southern Europe and downtown Latin America are used to having a cup of coffee in the morning and afternoon or evening. They prefer deep-roasted, semi-bitter, semi-sweet and burnt coffee. It is best to brew coffee with Espresso machine, and a small cup is dark and rich, with oil foam floating on the top and a little precipitation at the bottom. In the morning, a small cup of this coffee is mixed with hot milk in a bowl or a large cup. Coffee drinkers hold the bowl or cup in their hands, warm their palms with the heat of coffee or feel the fragrance of coffee through their nostrils. If possible, they even hope to jump into the bowl or cup for a bath. In the afternoon or evening, southern Europeans prefer black, rich and bitter-sweet coffee like the small cups used in the Middle East (about a quarter of the bowls used in the morning). A perfect cup of coffee in northern Europe and continental Europe is very different from that in the Middle East. First of all, the brewed coffee is light and round without sediment, and the coffee beans are roasted brown instead of black. A cup of Espresso Italian coffee changes into various fancy coffees-cappuccino, Viennese coffee, French milk coffee, etc ... In English-speaking countries, people are used to adding milk and sugar to their coffee, but because the coffee they drink is light, the added milk and sugar often affect and drown out the concentration and original flavor of the coffee. The habit of drinking coffee became popular in North America during the Second World War. In order to reduce the cost of drinking coffee and meet the needs at any time, American coffee is usually put on a heat preservation plate after the whole pot is cooked to keep warm at any time, and the brewed coffee is very weak. Typical coffee drinkers in North America regard coffee as a daily drink, drinking coffee poured out of the office coffee pot all day, or holding coffee at any time when doing housework. They drink coffee not only after meals, but also at the beginning and middle of the day. Enthusiastic Italy should be careful about two things when visiting Italy: one is a man and the other is coffee. In Italy, coffee and men are actually two things with the same effect, so there is a famous saying in Italy: men should be like good coffee, strong and full of enthusiasm! Italian coffee with the English name Espresso has been widely known to coffee lovers in China in recent years. This kind of pure black coffee, thick and fragrant, with a layer of golden foam floating on its surface, is thick and hot like the devil who escaped from hell. Every time it is drunk, it falls into unspeakable charm and is unforgettable. The characteristic of Italian coffee is reflected in its English name, which is a fast word. It can be made in less than ten seconds and drunk quickly, because there are only two or three mouthfuls. Generally, Italians make a cup of coffee as soon as they get up. Both men and women drink it almost from morning till night. Coffee shops called BAR can be seen everywhere in the street, selling a cup of about 4 lira for people to drink at once. Italians drink an average of twenty cups of coffee a day. Italian coffee bean is the deepest fried bean in the world, which is to match the special function of Italian coffee pot to extract coffee instantly. Because the weight of a cup of Italian coffee is only 5ml, and the consumption of coffee beans is only six to eight grams, this seemingly strong coffee actually does not hurt the stomach at all, and even helps digestion! There is also a drinking method of Italian coffee with milk, called Cappuccino, which uses the steam of Italian coffee pot above 13 degrees Celsius to foam the milk first and then float on the dark coffee. Sweet fresh milk, pure white and lovely, charming Espresso devil, under its embellishment, suddenly changed into a wonderful angel! Central and Northern Europe: Moderate and sensible, European style is not as passionate as the Italians, nor as romantic as the French. People in Central and Northern Europe drink coffee rationally and moderately, just like their nationality. The life of Europeans and coffee have almost become an inseparable link. Apart from the unique coffee drinking methods in Italy and France, the habits and tastes of coffee tasting in Austria, Switzerland and Germany, as well as in several northern European countries, can be said to be similar. They deeply understand the golden mean and belong to the medium-concentration taste. People in Central and Northern Europe make coffee at home, most commonly used simple hand-washed filter paper coffee pots, and common household electric coffee makers (Drip Coffee Maker). Among them, the Paper Drip method originated in Central Europe, which was invented by German Mrs. MERITA at the beginning of this century and widely spread in European countries. However, the coffee in the business place is still dominated by Espresso coffee machines because it needs a large number of fast supplies, but the coffee beans used are different in taste. When drinking coffee in cafes in these countries, coffee, sugar and milk are clearly divided. Many cafes list the different prices of black coffee and coffee with milk on the price list, and some even include the weight difference. Some countries in Central Europe, such as Austria and Switzerland, are famous for their dim sum, and all kinds of cakes are naturally another excellent performance on the coffee table. In recent years, the average coffee consumption of the people in the four Nordic countries has been ranked among the top four in the world (more than 1, cups per person per year). Their love for coffee can be best described by a lyric from an opera by Bach: such a wonderful coffee is sweeter than a thousand kisses and more intoxicating than old brewing!
