Coffee Types - Do You Want To Learn The "Coffee Lingo"

There are so many variations on the old black drink terms in the Coffee Industry - We need to Learn The "Coffee Lingo".
Have you ever wondered or do you know what Espresso really is? What it is used for & how? How about Caffè Mocha, OR Red Eye?
I'm about to fill you in on the some of the "Coffee Lingo".

Caffè Breve - Espresso - This is made with steamed half/half.
Caffè Freddo - This is a great refresher in the summer - A chilled glass as well as chilled Espresso.
Caffè Ristretto - A concentrate Espresso - with less than normal amount of water.
Cappuccino Chiaro - lighter than normal Cappuccino - less amount of ground beans to get the lighter drink.
Demitasse - French for "half a cup". The word Demitasse - refers to the small cups which Espresso is served in - in Italy. AND an after-dinner coffee traditionally drunk in France.
Espresso Romano
- A little different - I'd never have thought - Traditional Espresso with - a strip of lemon peel added to it.

More Info From a Friend:-
Cafè con Leche -Mexican - This is commonly made with hot milk and instant coffee. It is the popular version of coffee for the general public - is commonly ordered as "Leche Para Cafè" milk for coffee in restaurants. The waiter brings you a cup of hot milk and the instant coffee apart so you can mix it the way you wish.
