In such an elegant coffee shop, elegant manners, leisurely movements, all decent and courteous, learning culture and customs, without losing face and culture, also let that person admire, admire the noble temperament of courtesy.

Drinking coffee can be either elegant or heroic. The ruggedness of American coffee and the delicacy of Italian coffee are like two different tonalities. We can choose to taste them in elegant and noble coffee shops.

You can also drink it in a simple and cheap bar and coffee shop. If you go to an elegant coffee shop, there are always some etiquette that should not be lost, always respect culture and follow customs. Here are some etiquette for drinking coffee:

How to take the coffee cup: most of the after-dinner coffee cups are pocket cups with small ears, and the drinker's fingers cannot be pierced from the ear. If the after-dinner coffee cup is large, do not pick up the cup through the ear. The correct way to hold the cup is to hold the cup handle with your thumb and forefinger and then pick up the cup.

The method of adding sugar to coffee: when adding sugar, you can use a coffee spoon to scoop sugar into the coffee; if there is a sugar clip in the sugar jar, you can first clip out the cube sugar and place it on the edge of the coffee tray near the body, and then add the cube sugar to the coffee with a coffee spoon.

How to use the coffee spoon: the coffee spoon is used to stir the coffee. Take it out when drinking, and do not use the coffee spoon to gently scoop the coffee and sip the coffee slowly. Do not use the coffee spoon to mash the sugar cubes.

How to drink coffee: the temperature of the coffee just brewed is higher, so you can gently stir it with a coffee spoon to cool the coffee, or wait for the coffee to cool naturally before drinking. It is impolite and elegant to cool the coffee with your mouth.

The use of coffee cup and plate: the coffee cup and plate should be placed on the front or right side of the drinker, with the cup ear pointing to the right. When drinking coffee, you can gently pinch the cup ear with your right hand and hold the coffee tray with your left hand, slowly moving to your mouth to sip. When drinking, it is not appropriate to hold the cup and swallow, nor should you bow to the coffee cup to drink coffee. Don't make a sound when drinking coffee. When adding coffee, don't pick up the coffee cup from the coffee tray.

Coffee etiquette: coffee is usually served with snacks and cakes, but please don't hold the coffee in one hand and the snack in the other. When drinking coffee, put the pastry on the pastry plate, and when eating the pastry, put the coffee cup and plate on the table.
