世界上值得一嘗的十種咖啡(下)

uccino

5.卡布奇諾

The cappuccino is probably the most popular coffee in Italy and the true symbol of Italian beverages. Every self-respecting Italian will drink at least one per week (not to say per day). Drinking a nice cup of cappuccino in one of those beautiful cafes you can find in any corner of Italy is like a sacred litany to the hardcore lovers of cappuccinos.

在意大利最受歡迎的咖啡可能就是卡布奇諾了，同時它也是意大利飲品的真正象徵。每一個自尊自愛的意大利人每週（不是每天）至少會喝上一杯卡布奇諾。在意大利每一個街角都能看見的美麗小咖啡屋裏來上一杯上好的咖啡，對卡布奇諾的忠實粉絲來說，就像心中的祈禱文一樣神聖。

A cappuccino basically is a coffee-based drink prepared with espresso, hot milk, and steamed milk foam. It is traditionally served in a porcelain cup, which has far better heat retention than glass or paper. The foam on top of the cappuccino acts as an insulator and helps retain the heat of the liquid, allowing it to stay hotter longer.

卡布奇諾大體的做法是，用意式濃咖啡加上熱牛奶，蒸牛奶泡。人們習慣用瓷杯喝卡布奇諾。瓷杯要比玻璃杯或者是紙杯更能保溫些。咖啡上的牛奶泡沫層有隔離作用，持續保留溫度，能讓咖啡的熱度更持久一些。

k-Turkish Coffee

4.希臘咖啡/土耳其咖啡

What's the most interesting fact about this one is the dispute and constant fighting of the two countries, Greece and Turkey, about the origin of the specific coffee beverage.

關於這個咖啡最早出現的地方——希臘和土耳其兩個國家有着長久以來的爭鬥，這一點是這個咖啡最有趣的地方。

Greek, or Turkish coffee as they call it in Turkey, is made of well, but not over, roasted beans. It is still OK, even if you use coffee powder available for espresso. Although the coffee powder is thinner, it would be good to find it if you are looking for the authentic taste. The trick is in the grounding of the beans. It has to be grounded a little coarsely from roasted beans in a coffee mill. An important note would be that in Greek/Turkish coffee, the thick coffee ground stays at the bottom of the cup and you don't actually consume all that caffeine as in instant blend for Greek coffee is different from the Turkish coffee blend; it is usually a blend of Brazilian coffee and chicory, smoother, easy to drink and not that strong. Turkish is usually a blend of Colombian coffee and that is why it's usually stronger.

希臘咖啡，或者是在土耳其叫做土耳其咖啡，是由烘烤得恰到好處，而不是過分烘烤的咖啡豆製成。如果你用製作意式濃咖啡的咖啡粉，也是可以的。但是希臘咖啡/土耳其咖啡粉的顆粒更細小一些，所以爲了能品嚐到正宗的口味，費一些功夫是很有必要的。這種咖啡粉的奧妙在於咖啡豆的研磨上。在咖啡作坊裏，必須使勁研磨咖啡豆。關於這種咖啡，大家需要注意到的一點是，喝咖啡時，杯底子會有一層厚厚的咖啡沫，所以也沒必要像在喝速溶咖啡一樣把杯子裏的全部喝完。希臘咖啡跟土耳其咖啡還是稍有不同的。希臘咖啡更像是巴西咖啡和菊苣咖啡，香醇、爽滑、但沒有那麼濃烈。土耳其咖啡有點類似於哥倫比亞風咖啡，更濃烈一些。

puccino

3.法布奇諾（也叫星冰樂）

The USA is a country known for being a melting pot of different cultures, nationalities, races, and religions. Of course, food and drinks aren't an exception to this rule. In this case, the mixture of two great coffee beverages- Italian cappuccino and Greek Frappe- gave birth to frappuccino. Frappuccino is a trademarked line of blended coffee beverages sold by Starbucks, so in a few words, it's a coffee-celebrity. You can find a bottled beverage as well, called Frappuccino, which is sold in retail stores and vending machines. We must agree that some investors are really creative and they know how to impress young people. The experiment named Frappuccino is a total success and it has taken over (through Starbucks) the world. And hey, it tastes and looks good too.

衆所周知，美國是個大熔爐，融和了不同文化、宗教、種族和民族。當然，食物也不例外。就咖啡來說，兩種非常好的咖啡——意大利卡布奇諾和希臘法拉沛混合在一起就成了法布奇諾。在星巴克，法布奇諾被當作標誌性的混合咖啡來銷售。簡單來說，它就是咖啡中的"明星"。在零售商店或者是自動售貨機，也可以買到瓶裝的法布奇諾。我們必須承認，一些投資者真是富有創造力，他們知道如何吸引年輕人的眼球。製作法布奇諾的這個實驗成就了巨大的商業成功，（通過星巴克）向全世界打着招呼。嗨！它品相和味道都相當不錯喲!

au lait

2.咖啡歐蕾（也叫法式咖啡）

A cafe au lait is traditionally the French way of preparing coffee with milk. The secret of a good French coffee is the coffee beans. You can brew anything in a French press, but you won't get great coffee out of it without great beans. If you put nasty coffee in, you'll get nasty coffee out, simple as that. What you need is coffee ground pretty coarsely. Once you have your coarsely ground coffee, use the scoop to put coffee in the press. If you really care about quality, then pre-heat the press by pouring hot water in it. Then pour in water just off the boil, add the cover, and wait for about five minutes. Then press the plunger down and pour the coffee out. Let it cool a little, add some good quality rich milk, some sugar, and enjoy!

用傳統的法國方式在咖啡里加上牛奶，就是咖啡歐蕾。要想做好這種法式咖啡，祕訣在於咖啡豆。什麼樣的咖啡都能在咖啡機裏壓磨，但是如果沒有好的咖啡豆，就無法做出好的咖啡。你放進的是次等咖啡豆，出來的就是次等的咖啡，就這麼簡單。你需要做的是先把咖啡豆磨成粗粒，用勺子放進濾壓壺裏。如果對咖啡要求非常高，可以往機器裏倒點熱水先預熱一下。往咖啡里加上剛燒開的水，蓋上蓋子，等上5分鐘。打開開關，把咖啡倒出來。稍微晾一會兒，加點上好的全脂乳和糖，就可以享用了！

1.意式濃咖啡

Espresso is exactly the opposite of cappuccino; it's for the "sprinters", the people who are rushing and all they want is to have a big dose of caffeine in their system, so they can fully wake up and start their day strong and full of will usually drink your espresso quickly as you are standing, since you generally don't have time for a good conversation with a friend if this is what you're drinking. Espresso has risen in popularity worldwide since the 80's, while it has been quite popular in Italy and Europe from way back and there are many variations of it. The main variables in a shot of espresso are the size and length. The size can be a single, double, or triple, while the length of the shot can be ristretto (restricted), normale (normal), or lungo (long). These correspond to a smaller or larger drink with the same amount of ground coffee and same level of extraction. Whoever is a big fan of the strong and bitter version of pure coffee will definitely enjoy and appreciate a good espresso.

意式濃咖啡跟卡普奇諾是完全相反的。濃咖啡適合"匆忙者"，他們匆忙趕路，需要補充大劑量的咖啡因，好讓自己完全甦醒，開始充滿能量的一天。如果你喝的是這種咖啡，說明你沒有時間好好和朋友來場閒談，所以你甚至會站着匆匆忙忙地把咖啡喝完。從20世紀80年代開始，濃咖啡在全球流行起來。在那之前，在意大利，甚至是歐洲，這種咖啡以各種版本就很受歡迎。這一類咖啡的主要區分點在於大小和長度。大小分爲單份濃咖啡、雙份濃咖啡和三份濃咖啡，長度有小量濃縮咖啡、中等濃縮咖啡和加長濃縮咖啡。與此相應的，前者指的是同等杯量中的濃咖啡的含量，後者指的是萃取咖啡所用的時間長短。如果有誰是濃烈的純苦咖啡的超級粉絲，那麼肯定會對上好的意式濃咖啡相當鍾情。
