Coffee Traditions from Around the World as Told by J. Martinez

    ATLANTA, GA, November 12, 2014 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Consuming as much as 400 million cups of coffee each day, Americans are the leading coffee drinkers in the world, but this aromatic elixir is enjoyed in other countries as well with each one brewing and drinking coffee their way.

In Ethiopia, considered the birthplace of coffee, it is not uncommon for women to spend hours making the coffee in a special spouted pot called a jebena. In Mexico, they serve cafe de olla in clay pots said to add an earthy flavor to the coffee. It is served with a cinnamon stick and piloncillo, an unrefined sugar. The Vietnamese prefer their coffee cold, made from a dark roast and sweetened condensed milk.

One of Ireland's most popular imports is the Irish coffee, a whiskey-spiked drink topped with a dollop of cream. Italians love their espresso, while Austrians prefer a more cappuccino-inspired coffee drink topped with milk foam.
