americano
A smooth "long coffee" created by diluting a rich shot of espresso with hot water. The perfect morning sipper. ☕️
The Smooth Classic
- Shots: 1 or 2 (standard)
- Water: 120ml – 180ml hot water
- Milk: 0ml (Optional splash on the side)
- Foam: Very thin/dissolved crema
- History: Legend says it originated during WWII. American G.I.s stationed in Italy found local espresso too strong, so they diluted it with hot water to mimic the drip coffee they had back home.
