Coffee Drink Recipes From Around The World
Coffee is the second highest imported commodity in todays industry, immediately behind petroleum. This beverage has become so widely known that many coffee-derivative drinks have been produced and consumed for years. Below are a few usual coffee drink recipes.
The first drink would, of course, be coffee. Grown all around the globe but especially in Ethiopia, the Middle East, Columbia and Brazil, coffee seeds are exploited, dried, and then roasted. The process in preparation is complex, but the coffee drink recipe for coffee is simple: Coffee beans, consisting of caffeine and a variety of oils indigenous to the particular environment in which the beans are cultivated.
One coffee drink, called Ca Phe Sua, well-known in Vietnam comes in two variations Ca Phe Sua Da (coffee, milk, and ice) and Ca Phe Sua Nong (coffee and milk hot). The coffee drink recipe for the first consists of the simple procedure of blending dark French Roast with a quarter to half percent of condensed milk and then pouring, through a small drip filter, over ice. The coffee drink recipe for the second is similar, but ice is withheld, leaving only hot Ca Phe Sua.
The famous and widely consumed Espresso, invented and grown in Italy and well-known all over Europe, has a wide array of coffee drink recipes. Only a couple of them are described here.
A formal Italian Espresso is created by forcing moderately hot water through high pressure (nine to ten atmospheres, or bars) into extremely fine-ground coffee to create a drink thicker in consistency than regular coffee and composed of a variety of vegetable oils, proteins, sugars, and reddish-brown foam called Crema.
Espresso has very little water. The coffee drink recipe for Caffe Americano (American Coffee), an American version of Espresso, has a higher degree of water and is created related to the drip-brew fashion.
The coffee drink recipe for Latte (Italian for milk) is a simple one: Caf a Latte, meaning Coffee and Milk, is composed of one-third Espresso and two-thirds steamed milk, poured together simultaneously into either side of the drinking cup. Caf Lattes typically have foam floating on top.
The Frappaccino is a widely known drink sold by the Starbucks coffee chain. This coffee drink recipe is as follows: one-part soluble coffee is blended with water, which in turn is mixed with an one-part proprietary liquid comprised of milk, sugar substances, and caramel flavoring and then in the end with ice. A Frappaccino has a milkshake consistency, a solid coffee flavor, and is chilled before drinking.
All of these and many other coffee drink recipes are available on the Interweb or in various recipe books. For those who love coffee, these coffee drink recipes will leave mouths watering!
Mmm, coffee! That oughta get your fire burnin!
