Coffee, one of the three largest drinks in the world, is one of the most inseparable beverages for me. After drinking for so many years, I gradually find that many friends do not understand the classification of coffee taste, or are easy to get confused. Mocha, latte, American, cappuccino, Italian concentrate, Maggialdo. This article will use the most concise explanation and the most unreliable analogy to show you the characteristics and similarities and differences of the six categories of coffee, which can be used for reference when you click on coffee.

I. Italian concentration

Recipe: 100% espresso, nothing else

Taste: one word, bitter; two words, too bitter; three words, very bitter.

Sweetness: 0 star

Comments: espresso is the strongest pure coffee, is the core basis of all the following fancy coffee, it is extracted from pressurized water vapor directly through coffee powder, its bitter degree can be imagined. This kind of coffee is only suitable for two types of people, one is coffee enthusiasts, what they like is the original and authentic taste of coffee, and the other is those who are in urgent need of a quick pick-me-up.

II. American style

Formula: 1 espresso + 2 water

Taste: slightly sour, bitter

Sweetness: 0 star

Comments: espresso and boiled water. It's as simple as that. My favorite drink is American style, which is a tall and white northern girl. In fact, American coffee is really like a northern woman, not sweet and greasy, not correct kneading, not affected, refreshing, natural atmosphere. Those who like it are so addicted that they can't stop; if they don't like it, stay away.

Third, latte

Formula: 1 espresso + 1.5 hot milk + 0.5 milk foam

Palate: slightly sweet with rich milky taste

Sweetness: 2 stars

Comments: my coffee partner loves lattes for strange reasons-this sister has read an article entitled "my Latte Life" and has been fascinated by the romantic and coquettish atmosphere created between the lines. It is said that latte is the most in line with the taste of Chinese coffee, strong but not bitter, sweet but not greasy, coupled with the fragrance of milk, everything is just right.

Fourth, caramel macchiato

Formula: 1 espresso + 0.5 milk foam + vanilla syrup + caramel

Taste: sweet, rich in layers

Sweetness: 4 stars

Comments: if American coffee is like a hearty northern girl, then caramel macchiato is a sweet southern girl. Looking at the name of this coffee, I think it is lovely and lovely, and the taste of the entrance is even more delicate-soft with milk foam, sweet and soft with syrup, and a sweet girl with Wu Nong soft language standing in front of her.

5. Cappuccino

Formula: 1 espresso + 0.5 hot milk + 1.5 milk foam

Palate: sweet, foamy

Sweetness: 3 stars

Comments: when I first started drinking coffee many years ago, I liked to order cappuccino and inexplicably decided that the name had its own fashion style. After a few attempts, I can't bear it. Forgive me for my bad taste. This coffee is sweet, but other types of coffee, with a little milk foam, are only used for seasoning and flower drawing. As for cappuccino, the first mouthful is full of foam, the second mouthful is full of foam, and the third mouthful is full of foam. It's like drinking a glass of beer with sugar and a strong pour, half a cup down, with no substance at all.

VI. Mocha

Recipe: 1 espresso + 1 hot milk + 0.5 chocolate sauce + 0.5 fresh cream

Palate: sweet with strong chocolate aroma

Sweetness: 3 stars
