Perhaps use SI units instead of "small, medium, large"
as much as I love SI units, coffee sizes for decent cafes are already pretty standard across the globe:
4oz (shots) 6oz (small) 8oz (regular) 12oz (large) 16oz (iced, etc)
??? A .5l iced coffee is not "regular", nor is "shot" the smallest. A typical shot of espresso is 30ml (1floz), half for ristretto, double for lungo.
A cortado is 4 OUNCES. I even made it American.
Europe is not uniform in this, as per usual. This is what you'll get in southern Europe. In central Europe, you'll get a really big one though.
This was my wife’s problem when we were in Europe. She prefers the americano style where it’s a mug’s worth of coffee, instead of espresso. So whenever we got coffee, I diluted the espresso with some water for her.
But why would you buy an espresso in the first place? Sure it depends on the country but in most places you can get a proper coffee with no need to dilute it with cold water.
Not here, You get whole 100ml (maybe more not sure) mug, full mug of a black Turkish coffee (it is strong and bitter)
“lmao”, as they say
in Japan they always make sure you know what you’re getting into when you order an espresso: “the cup is really small, is that ok??”
Continental Europe
Is this the “Pocket Rocket” I keep hearing about? Small but packing more caffeine than all the uppers combined?
Reminds me of that “this is a small in ” meme
IMO, a french press coffee is pretty good. it gives the amount of coffee I want without making it overly strong like espresso. It also doesn't make it taste like shit, a la mr coffee. when i drink coffee, i enjoy sitting and sipping my drink, not tossing back my coffee like it's a shot of tequila.
No no, he's got a point!
