Formal occasions, what kind of coffee to drink and how to drink it

On formal occasions, what coffee to drink and how to drink coffee are not only personal habits, but also related to the identity, upbringing and knowledge of the chooser.

1. The time to drink coffee

Serve coffee at home, whether as a friend or purely as a drink, no later than 4 p.m. Because there are many people who are not used to drinking coffee after this time.

Invite people to go out and have coffee when meeting guests in the coffee shop, the best time is in the evening or afternoon.

In formal Western-style banquets, coffee is often the "grand finale". Some formal Western-style banquets are usually held in the evening, so drinking coffee at the party is usually in the evening. However, in order to take care of personal hobbies, it is best to prepare black tea while serving coffee at the banquet, which is up to the guests to choose.

Coffee is often the last "dish" in dinner. When eating in a restaurant, people often choose coffee to accompany the meal.

The most common places to drink coffee are: living room, restaurant, writing room, garden, coffee shop, coffee shop and so on.

Drinking coffee in the living room is mainly suitable for entertaining guests.

In the writing room to drink coffee, mainly in the workplace to enjoy their own, in order to refresh. There is no requirement in this case.

If you drink coffee in your garden, it is suitable to have a rest with your family. It is also suitable for entertaining guests. In the West, there is a special coffee party for women to socialize, which is held in the host's garden or courtyard. It does not rank, the time is not long, and focuses on communication and communication.

2. Decent behavior when drinking coffee

When drinking coffee, you must pay attention to your personal behavior. Mainly pay more attention to the quantity of drinking, the addition of ingredients, the method of drinking and so on.

The specific amount of coffee we drink, on formal occasions, we should pay attention to:

The number of cups is less. Drinking coffee on formal occasions is only a foil or means of leisure or communication, so we should not drink more than three cups of coffee at most.

Fewer entrances. Since the purpose of drinking coffee is not to satisfy hunger and thirst, then don't be rude and make people laugh when drinking coffee. It is impolite to take a cup and drink it, or to swallow it loudly and loudly.

Sometimes you need to add some ingredients such as milk and sugar to your coffee as needed. At this time, we must keep in mind the two requirements of independent addition and civilized addition.

Don't take matters into your own hands and add ingredients to others. If an ingredient is used up and needs to be replenished, don't shout. When adding milk, move steadily and don't pour it all over the table. When adding sugar, use a special sugar clip or spoon to get it, not directly.

On formal occasions, coffee is put into a cup and served together on a plate. The role of the plate is mainly used to place coffee spoons and receive coffee that spills over the cup.

The proper way to hold a coffee cup is to hold out your right hand, hold the ear of the cup with your thumb and index finger, and then gently pick up the cup. Do not hold the cup with both hands or hold the bottom of the cup with your hands, nor can you lean over and drink from the cup. The coffee spilled on the plate is sucked dry with a tissue.

If you sit near the table and drink coffee, you usually only need to carry the cup, not the plate. If you are far away from the table, or drink coffee while standing or walking, use your left hand to hold the cup and plate to chest height, and then drink the cup with your right hand. This method is both good-looking and safe.

On formal occasions, the main function of a coffee spoon is to stir gently after adding milk or cream to blend the milk or cream with the coffee. After adding small pieces of sugar, stir slightly with a coffee spoon to promote rapid melting. If the coffee is too hot, you can also stir it slightly with a coffee spoon.

When using coffee spoons, we should pay special attention to two taboos. One is not to use a coffee spoon to scoop coffee. Second, when not in use, put it flat in the coffee plate, do not stand in the coffee cup.

When drinking coffee, in order not to hurt the intestines and stomach, some snacks such as cakes, nuts and fruits are often prepared at the same time.

When you need dessert, first put down the coffee cup. When drinking coffee, don't taste dessert in your hand at the same time. What's more, you can't open your bow with both hands, eating and drinking at the same time.

When drinking coffee, you should talk to your partner at the right time. At this time, be sure to whisper, do not talk loudly, make jokes, and do not tamper with others, chase and fight. Otherwise, it can only destroy the scene atmosphere of drinking coffee.

Don't ask a question to someone while they are drinking coffee and let him talk. Before you drink your coffee and want to talk, you'd better wipe your mouth with a paper towel so as not to let the coffee get dirty.
