How to Order Coffee

如何点咖啡

在咖啡厅,如果你没说清楚,出来的也许不是你想要的咖啡,所以要咖啡的时候要与服务员明确说清楚。

1. Order the size of your coffee. Stick to the terms small,medium or large for brewed coffee and single, double or triplefor espresso drinks. When ordering espresso drinks, usually, asmall comes with 1 shot of espresso, a medium comes with 2shots, a large comes with 3, though you can ask for any amountof shots in any size cup. If you want something unusual, like 3shots in a small cup, be sure to specify.

确定咖啡的大小份。关于术语小、中、大份是针对新调制的咖啡,单份、双份、三份是针对浓咖啡饮料而言。点浓咖啡饮料的时候,虽然无论大小可随意往里面加浓咖啡,但一般一小份的加1小杯浓咖啡,一中份的加2小杯浓咖啡,大份的加3小杯浓咖啡。如果你有特殊要求,比如小份加3小杯浓咖啡等等要说明确。

2. Ask for decaffeinated coffee if that is what you want;Most of the fancy drinks can be made with decaf, so ask.

如果喜欢就点脱******吧。大多数好饮料都用脱******咖啡制作。

3. Be prepared for milk-free coffee. Restaurants and coffeeshops in North America generally serve coffee without milkalready added. Coffee houses usually have a self-service standwith sugar and cream or milk - as well as other additions suchas cinnamon - that you can add to your coffee if so desired.

习惯不加奶咖啡。许多北美餐馆和咖啡厅的咖啡通常不加奶。咖啡厅喝咖啡一般自己添加喜欢的口味糖、奶油或牛奶,当然还有其他,比如肉桂。

4. Think about what type of milk you want: whole, non-fat,organic, or heavy whipping cream.

考虑一下添加的牛奶类型:纯牛奶、脱脂牛奶、有机的、浓牛奶。

5. Add a flavoring to taste. If you like, order a flavoring.

Chocolate, vanilla, caramel and hazelnut are the most popular.

添加口味作料。如果喜欢的话,加一点口味。巧克力味的,香草味的,焦糖味的,榛子味的都很受欢迎。
