How Do Italians Drink Coffee?

JRThikerPřed rokem

American, but live in Abruzzo, Adriatic side of the Apennine. True, every region takes their coffee slightly differently. Here it's mostly a smooth medium roast caffe' normale (espresso) in the bars, Moka at home, and cappuccino only for breakfast. I love the macchiatone from other regions like Lucca in NW Tuscany, basically a macchiato with a bit more milk, but not as much as a cappuccino. Don't order it in Rome, they'll get mad. The caffe' in ghiaccio from Puglia is fantastic....a shot of espresso over ice with sugar. Again, don't order it in Rome, they'll think you're crazy. The Shakerato is popular all over in the summer. The bicerin with the chocolate in Torino is fun and different. And in Napoli the straight shots of espresso (caffe' normale) with or without sugar, and a small (mignon) sfogliatella hot out of the oven is heaven. To me, the best coffee is in Napoli as I like it dark and powerful, but everyone will argue about it which is the fun thing in Italy. As the French say....chacun à son goût!
