Caffè Italiano

Caffè : espresso served in a porcelain demitasse cup tazzina.

Caffè Macchiato : from an Italian verb macchiare (to stain). Espresso in a demitasse cup is stained with some hot milk, probably frothed, though no attention is placed on serving foam.

Caffè Macchiato Freddo : espresso served in a demitasse cup with cold or lukewarm milk on the side. It looks like a normal caffè next to a carafe of milk. It is! Many bars provide a communal container of milk on the bar, so often someone can just order a caffè and add the milk themselves. It’s best to order the caffè macchiato freddo and let the barman direct you. If you absolutely want to add the milk yourself, you can make sure to specify, “il latte a parte”.

Cappuccino : Espresso and steamed, frothy milk added so that there is a clean layer of milk foam in a larger cup, a tazza.

Marocchino (Espressino or Mocacchino) : It is a shot of espresso served in a glass demitasse (for aesthetic reasons), with a sprinkling of cacao (added either before or after the milk, sometimes both!) and milk foam spooned on top.

Latte Macchiato : Milk “stained” with coffee, and served hot in a glass cup as shown or in a tall glass, larger than a cappuccino.

Caffè Corretto : An espresso in a demitasse cup, with a “shot” of liquor of your choice. Popular liquors are grappa, Sambuca, (anise-flavored liqueur), cognac, rum, or Baileys Irish Cream. You can also ask for a Marocchino Corretto.

Caffè Doppio : Two shots of espresso, served in a larger cup (tazza).

Caffè Americano :  A shot of espresso with hot water added and served in the larger “tazza.”

Caffè Stretto or Ristretto : Made with less water than a normal espresso, this caffè is more concentrated and strong and served in a demitasse.

Caffè d’Orzo : Espresso made from barley is a popular alternative to traditional espresso. It can be ordered as a single, doppio (double) or macchiato like a normal caffè. You can see this macchiato has some bubbles because the caffè d’orzo is not as thick as a regular caffè.

Caffè Freddo : Espresso is left to raffreddare or get cool, or is sometimes refrigerated and served cold or lukewarm.

Caffè HAG :  Not only is this the most popular brand of decaffeinated coffee in Italy, it can also be a way to indicate a decaffeinated coffee when ordering. It can be ordered as a single, double or macchiato like a normal caffè. (Pron: Ahg – the H is silent).  

--Taste also caffè in these variations..

Granita di Caffè : Granita, an icy coffee treat was recently covered by Shelley at At Home in Rome at the famous Tazza d’Oro in Rome. This can be found in some gelaterias or bars that have granita, but it is not a common flavor.

Caffè Completo : This may be available at a few select bars (ask if you don’t mind striking out every once and a while!) but Shelley’s Caffè Completo at Cafffè Camerino had fresh whipped cream on top with a sprinkling of cacao.

Caffè Shakerato : Coffee shaken with ice and sugar (if requested). It’s great on its own, or try it with Bailey’s Irish Cream for an even better experience!

Bicerin : A Torinese specialty, hot chocolate, espresso and frothy milk served in a glass.

Caffè con Panna : Espresso with fresh-whipped cream. Some bars will have this as a specialty but not all bars will have whipping cream on hand.
