❌ Stop ordering coffee WRONG! ❌ 🇮🇹☕

Italians love their coffee. Some even joke that it's like a ritual to them. Ordering yours wrong is a surefire way to say you're a tourist. Follow these rules, and you'll fit right in!

1. Never drink coffee with a meal. Almost. The only meal Italians will have alongside their coffee is colazione - breakfast. Otherwise, it's only served after you've eaten or between meals.

2. Don't change the flavor. Italian coffee isn't meant to be a dessert in itself. It's either meant to balance the sweetness of a dolce - dessert (Literally: sweet) or meant to be appreciated on its own. While there are some exceptions that involve ice cream, cocoa powder, or chocolate, most traditional cafes or bars won't have flavored syrups.

3. Never order a cappuccino after noon. Cappuccinos are meant to be a morning beverage. Ordering one in the afternoon or evening screams straniero/a - foreigner.
