Some etiquette for drinking coffee

[how to get a coffee cup] Coffee that you drink after a meal is usually served in a pocket cup. The ear of this kind of cup is so small that you can't get your fingers out. 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 handle of the cup by your thumb and forefinger and then pick up the cup.

[how to add sugar to coffee] when adding sugar to coffee, the sugar can be scooped out 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 add the cube sugar to the cup with a coffee spoon. 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.

[how to use coffee spoon] Coffee spoon is specially used to stir coffee. You should take it out when drinking coffee. No longer use a coffee spoon to scoop a spoonful of coffee to drink slowly, and do not use a coffee spoon to mash the cube sugar in the cup.

[what if the coffee is too hot] the 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 is very impolite to try to cool the coffee with your mouth.

[use of cups and saucers] the cups and saucers that hold 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 cup ear of the coffee in your right hand and hold the coffee plate gently in your left hand, slowly moving to your mouth and sipping. It is not advisable to hold the cup and swallow, nor should you bow your head 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.

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