How much do you know about coffee etiquette?

1. How to get a coffee cup

The coffee you drink after a meal is usually served in a pocket cup. The ear of this kind of cup is too small for fingers to pass through. But even if you use a larger cup, don't put your finger through the ear and carry the cup. The correct way to hold a coffee cup is to hold the cup by your thumb and forefinger.

two。 How to add sugar to coffee

When adding sugar to the coffee, the sugar can be scooped with a coffee spoon and added directly to the cup, or you can first use a sugar clip to clip the cube sugar on the near side of the coffee plate, and then use the coffee spoon to add the cube sugar to the cup. If you put the cube sugar directly into the cup with a sugar clip or hand, it may sometimes spill the coffee and stain the clothes or tablecloth.

3. How to use a coffee spoon

The coffee spoon is specially used to stir the coffee and should be taken out when drinking the coffee. Do not use a coffee spoon to scoop a spoonful of coffee and drink it slowly, and do not use a coffee spoon to mash the cube sugar in the cup.

4. What if the coffee is too hot?

Freshly brewed coffee is so hot that you can gently stir it in the cup with a coffee spoon to cool it, or wait for it to cool naturally before drinking it. It is very impolite to try to cool the coffee with your mouth.

5. The use of cups and plates

The cups and saucers for coffee are specially made. They should be placed on the front or right side of the drinker, and the cup ear should point to the right. When drinking coffee, you can hold the ear of the coffee cup in your right hand and gently hold the coffee plate in your left hand, slowly moving to your mouth and sipping. It is not appropriate to hold the cup and swallow, nor should you bow to the coffee cup. Don't make a noise when drinking coffee. When adding coffee, do not pick up the coffee cup from the coffee plate.

6. Drink coffee and snack

Sometimes you can have some snacks when drinking coffee, but don't alternate between eating and drinking coffee cups in one hand and snacks in the other. You should put down the snack when you drink coffee and the cup when you eat it.
