Americano

These are two coffee drinks that seem very similar at first glance, but are in fact very different. Drip coffee is made when hot water drips through coffee grounds while an Americano is made by pouring water over an already made espresso shot. While it seems like the set up is the same, water and coffee, they have very different flavors. Not all coffee beans can be made into espresso, but all can be ground to make drip. This causes the flavors of these two drinks, one American one Italian based, takes very different.
