Why is chocolate milk on this graphic but not regular (non-espresso) coffee? The chocolate milk is the only thing without espresso in it.

There is no “non-espresso” coffee in Italy. You’re basically describing how the Americano came to be.

If that’s the reason, I guess the graphic would be better labeled as “Drinks available in Italian cafes”.

Do they call chocolate milk a type of coffee in Italy?

I don’t understand what you mean by “regular (non-espresso) coffee”.

Espresso is coffee brewed by forcing water through the grounds at high pressure. As opposed to “regular” coffee made in something like a drip coffee maker, pour over cone, or French press.

Sounds like you either don’t like strong flavors, or haven’t had good espresso. Modern espresso even can have paper filters.

Espresso is so much better. The coffee is more full-bodied, smooth, and nuanced. You must not have had good espresso.

Drip coffee is just dirty water.

What they’ve called a “Glace” I’ve always heard called Affogato

Same here. Occasionally served with liqueur, something like Kahlua or Bailey’s.

In my experience Affogato is usually with amaretto as well

I used to be all about a latte macchiato with an extra shot, then I got hooked on café con leche. After I returned home I found out a flat white is as close as you can get, without being a jerk who explains their custom order to every barista.

Sounds quite a bit different, but certainly also like something worth trying when I come across it. Thanks!

First time trying a flat white my wife and I had an epiphany. We always ordered cappuccino but didn’t care about the foam. Now it’s our go to coffee, unless I need to get a real energy boost. In that case ristretto or espresso with sugar is my go to.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh… what do we know?
