Coffee has always been associated with romance . When you meet her at a coffee shop, what kind of coffee should you choose for her?

Nowadays, coffee has become one of the indispensable drinks in our daily life. Some people say it is bitter, while others say it is sweet. Different people will always taste different flavors of the same cup of coffee.

There are many varieties of coffee, such as Italian coffee, Americano, cappuccino, mocha, latte, etc. What are the differences between them? In the first episode of "Master of the House" aired this week, professionals in the coffee industry gave us the answer. Next, we will teach you how to choose coffee that suits different tastes .

First of all, the most common coffee we see in coffee shops is [ Italian coffee ]. Italian coffee is a series of coffees made with espresso as the base. It is made by extracting coffee powder through an Italian coffee machine under a certain pressure. Therefore, Italian coffee has the highest concentration and the strongest taste . Some people compare it to strong liquor in alcohol and essence in perfume. As for "double espresso", please don't try it lightly, in case you feel like you can't get up.

[ American coffee ] is actually a drink made by adding espresso to water.

American coffee was born after World War II, when the US military came to southern Europe. They couldn't drink strong Italian coffee, so they diluted it with warm water. Later, because it was American soldiers who drank it this way, people named this diluted coffee "American coffee".

American coffee is light and clear, almost transparent, and you can even see the brown coffee at the bottom of the cup. The French jokingly call American coffee jus de chaussette, which means water for washing socks. In addition, American coffee is a black coffee with a mellow taste and the lowest calories compared to other brewed coffees .

As for cappuccino and latte, both are fancy coffees, and many people may not be able to tell them apart. First of all, they are both based on espresso, which is Italian coffee. The most popular method on the Internet is to distinguish them based on the ratio of coffee base to milk.

Latte and cappuccino both look like milk coffee, but the biggest feature of cappuccino is that there is a layer of foamed milk on top of the coffee, and this foamed milk is foamed with steam. It tastes denser when you drink it, and you can clearly feel a little bubble lingering on your lips when you take the first sip.

The milk content in [ Latte ] is higher, so it tastes softer. In general, the taste of latte is smooth and slightly strong in milk flavor .

Finally, we talked about [ Mocha Coffee ]. Everyone assumes that it is latte with chocolate sauce added, so it is also the sweetest one.

The rich and delicate taste of cappuccino, the silky smoothness of latte, and the rich and mellow flavor of mocha. Which of these three fancy coffees do you prefer?
