Something to enjoy anytime of the day mostly every morning

world, Coffee continues to capture the hearts of those that in need of a sip. Here
are some of our favorite coffee beverages we love:
Caffè Americano - Caffè Americano or simply Americano is a

Café au lait - the name most often used in coffee shops. It
is a coffee beverage consisting strong or bold coffee (sometimes espresso)
mixed with scalded milk in approximately a 1:1 ratio. Wikipedia further says
that a café au lait is a French coffee drink. In Europe, "café au
lait" stems from the same continental tradition as "caffè Latte"
in Italy, "café con leche" in Spain, "kawa biała"
("white coffee") in Poland, "Milchkaffee" in Germany,
"Grosser Brauner" in Austria, "koffie verkeerd" in
Netherlands, and "café com leite" in Portugal, simply "coffee
with milk". In northern Europe, café au lait is called Café Bombón.

Cafe mocha - A café mocha is a variant of a caffè latte.
Like a latte, it is typically one third espresso and two thirds steamed milk,
but a portion of chocolate is added, typically in the form of a chocolate
syrup, although other vending systems use instant chocolate powder. Mochas can
contain dark or milk chocolate. The term moccaccino is used in some regions of
Europe and the Middle East to describe caffè latte with cocoa or chocolate. In
the U.S. it usually refers to a cappuccino made with chocolate. 'Mochachinno' is usually mentioned at Starbucks.

Cappuccino - Cappuccino is a coffee-based drink prepared
with espresso, hot milk, and steamed milk foam. A cappuccino differs from a
caffè latte in that it is prepared with much less steamed or textured milk than
the caffè latte with the total of espresso and milk/foam making up between
approximately 150 ml and 180 ml (5 and 6 fluid ounces). A cappuccino is
traditionally served in a porcelain cup, which has far better heat retention
characteristics than glass or paper. The foam on top of the cappuccino acts as
an insulator and helps retain the heat of the liquid, allowing it to stay
hotter longer.
