Coffee, like tea, is a stimulant! The discovery of tea is almost a myth, and the discovery of coffee is very close to the ground!
It is said that a Muslim shepherd, driving his sheep through a burnt forest, smelled a strong fragrance. He wanted to leave quickly, but he could watch the sheep pick up something to eat on the ground. Later, it was terrible. After the sheep ate something on the ground, they jumped and jumped, jumping high and spreading joy! After returning home, the shepherd missed the smell very much. When he passed there again, he carefully observed and found burnt coffee beans!
About 1990, I went to a small Mediterranean country to study. I just arrived for a few days, and I had nothing to do. I strolled along the beach, and the fragrance wafted from afar. It was tempting! Follow the taste to find a small shop, and watch people freshly grind and make coffee. The small cups are almost the same as our small handleless wine cup. When I ask the price, I am scared to get down! One dollar a cup! At that time, I had just joined the work, and my monthly salary was less than 100 yuan, which was only a dozen dollars when converted into dollars. I was not willing to taste it, but I was still unwilling to go far away. The smell was simply magical! I went back, bought a cup, sat by the sea, blew the sea breeze, and heard people tell me how to drink coffee, with or without milk and sugar. Besides, that cup of coffee costs one dollar, as long as you don't leave, people will continue it for you after drinking it!
Haha, the first taste in memory is the most attractive taste!
Later, it was said that if you always give a child western food before he is three years old, he will mainly eat western food when he grows up, and eat Chinese food before he is three years old. It is estimated that he only loves Chinese food in his life!
Drink coffee without sugar or milk. Is that me?
Remember the earliest coffee? Generally, it is a can of coffee, with a coffee partner and sugar cubes, and then it is prepared according to your own preferences.
Because I was born after 70, I first saw coffee as a drink, or in the movie herdsman, I saw a bridge for drinking coffee.
Because at that time, I was still young (I forgot the grade of primary school), and it was when I was greedy. I couldn't understand what herdsman said, but I felt that drinking coffee was a "capitalist" lifestyle, but I just didn't know what it was.
Later, coffee was sold in the market, but it was basically not bought at home. Once, my father went on a business trip or a meeting. Should it be the coffee provided by the meeting? He brought it back for me to taste.
It was the first time to drink coffee. I felt sweet and greasy, and there was a hint of bitterness in my aftertaste. It's not delicious, but coffee? In my heart, it has always been something high-end and strange.
Later, with the coffee shops everywhere, drinking coffee is basically the same as drinking tea, and it feels that coffee is cheaper than tea and more popular with female friends.
Because I don't like sweet and milk by nature, I basically drink coffee without sugar and milk!
Coffee tastes original, basically it has a unique sour taste besides bitterness. A cup of hot original coffee, feeling directly on the head, the spirit immediately does it one brace up. Coffee can be said to have its original taste without sugar, especially the powder ground from coffee beans.
Because I drink coffee without sugar more often, I have some psychological feelings:
Because I drink coffee without sugar and milk, maybe most people who don't add sugar and milk should be similar to me.
What psychology is drinking coffee without sugar or milk?
In fact, there is nothing special about it. It tastes like that!
Because, if you add sugar and milk to coffee, it's not the same taste, just to add the taste of coffee to your mouth!
Especially in the reception, the host will ask whether to add sugar and milk, which also shows respect for the guests. And drinking coffee is not to drink two or three cups at a time, so you need to taste it slowly.
Actually, it's just like drinking tea and soy milk. In the past, I remember when I was a child, if I drank soy milk without sugar, I couldn't drink it at all, and many people around me added sugar. Later, in order to reduce the intake of sugar, I tried to drink it without sugar, and I gradually got used to the original bitter taste of soy milk, but I didn't like adding sugar.
Of course, drinking coffee without sugar and milk, I think, one reason is to taste the bitterness of coffee, just like life, sweet and sour, and everyone needs to taste it. Another reason is to think from a healthy perspective. After all, eating too much sugar is not a good thing.
1, remember that drinking coffee on an empty stomach, especially for patients with gastric ulcer, will stimulate gastric acid secretion.
2, it is not easy to drink espresso
3, do not drink a lot of coffee, the normal consumption of coffee every day is 2 cups.
4, hypertension, coronary heart disease patients should not drink.
Drinking coffee without sugar or milk may be a little unacceptable to me. I remember that the earliest time I started drinking coffee (exposing the rhythm of age [covering my face] [laughing]) was to drink Nestle coffee. At that time, coffee with coffee partners and sugar cubes was the standard for drinking coffee. Once I wanted to drink coffee on a whim (some people at home gave Nestle coffee and Nestle coffee partners), I put a spoonful of coffee, a few spoonfuls of coffee partners, and five or six cubes of sugar. ! I said I was drinking coffee. He said who drinks coffee with so many partners and sugar cubes? I said don't be bitter to death if you don't add it. He said that you might as well drink sugar water [I want to be quiet] [Laughing] This is my first time to drink coffee. Now I basically drink lattes. It's really unacceptable to drink without milk.
What's wrong with this! I was drunk, too. It's just personal taste and preference! Some people can't stand the bitter taste of coffee and like to add sugar. I know some foreigners who can add 3 packets of sugar to a cup of coffee. Some people think the bitterness is beautiful and original, so they drink black coffee. For example, I quit sugar, but I think black coffee is still too bitter, so I add some milk to make it comprehensive, and the taste is just right!
People who drink coffee without sugar and milk are generally people who can drink coffee better. Of course, you must have good enough coffee. If it is instant coffee, you should add a coffee partner, because sugar and milk can't save instant coffee.
Generally speaking, Italy and France like to drink espresso after meals, which is small and stuffy, generally without sugar and milk.
Americans like to drink a cup of black coffee in the morning without sugar or milk.
Because Chinese people have never had the habit of drinking coffee, most people make a cup of instant coffee to refresh themselves. Instant coffee is the worst in coffee. If you don't add anything, it is more difficult to drink. Generally, you have to add a coffee partner, but there are a lot of non-dairy creamers in the coffee partner. Although it tastes good, it is really unhealthy to drink too much.
Of course, with the improvement of consumption level, we now have many choices, such as going to Starbucks, costa, Ruixing and so on to buy a cup of freshly ground coffee. Most people also drink lattes or American sugar and milk. So everyone still likes to drink milk coffee.
However, in recent years, with the younger generation's more and more profound understanding of coffee culture, it is found that coffee itself has a rich and wonderful taste, and to drink a good cup of coffee, we have to mention fine coffee. Fine coffee refers to coffee made with high standards and strict requirements from coffee bean cultivation to baking to coffee brewing. This kind of coffee often has this very unique flavor, for example, the faint acidity and aroma of flowers and fruits are soft with the aroma of coffee, and the proper baking and brewing methods can make this coffee flavor to the extreme, and what you drink will no longer be the only bitter and burnt taste of instant coffee. Only by drinking this kind of coffee will you be willing to give up adding milk and sugar and taste the original taste of coffee!
What psychology is it to drink coffee without sugar or milk?
In fact, this is just a personal hobby. Some people can't bear the bitterness of plain coffee, so they will add some sugar and milk to neutralize it. After adding sugar and milk, the bitterness of coffee is relatively weakened and the taste is better.
Of course, there are many kinds of coffee: instant coffee, American coffee, latte, mocha and so on. American coffee is the most common coffee, usually without sugar or milk, but it has the highest caffeine content and smells better.
Generally, people who lose weight prefer American coffee because of its high caffeine content. After drinking it, it can promote digestion, keep high spirits and improve the metabolism of the body. If it is concentrated American coffee, then the effect is the best.
We can often see in cafes that different people have different requirements for coffee, such as cappuccino, latte, mocha ... different kinds of coffee will be selected, while others will ask for sugar, no milk and so on.
Therefore, drinking coffee without sugar or milk is entirely a personal preference or drinking habit, not out of any psychology. Everyone is an individual, and the requirements and choices for things will be different. It is best to choose what suits you and what you like.
Actually, it's about a cup of coffee.
Drinking coffee is a matter of respecting and embodying personality.
In the early days when coffee was introduced to China, people didn't know much about it, and they didn't know how to cook or taste it. Naturally, they all sought for "standards".
It can be seen that no matter how others treat their cup of coffee, it is an expression of personality and should be respected.
Espresso. It is an Italian-style coffee, which is directly ground into powder from coffee beans and pressed by steam. Just a small cup at a time, and the emphasis is on speed. At the beginning, it will feel bitter, and at the end, it will taste sour.
American coffee (concentrated+water). It is one of the most basic coffee, and there are generally two ways to do it: one is black coffee made by using drip coffee pot, which has a strong taste; The other is made by intentional concentration and adding water, which has a light taste.
Because American coffee, which is made of Espresso and boiled water, is basically black coffee and tastes bitter.
The coffee base is concentrated, caramel macchiato is sweet, milk and syrup are added, and caramel will be sprinkled on the milk foam.
Latte coffee is a classic mixture of Italian espresso and milk, and Italians also like latte as a breakfast drink. Fat friends who don't want to drink too sweet or too bitter can choose latte.
Cappuccino can be divided into dry and wet types. Dry cappuccino has more milk bubbles and less milk. Wet cappuccino has less foam and more milk, and the flavor of wet cappuccino is similar to latte.
Mocha is named after the famous Mocha Port. In the 15th century, the transportation industry in East Africa was very underdeveloped. However, the most precious coffee beans in the world were produced here. These coffee beans would be collected in Moka Port in Yemen and transported to Europe.
If you are interested, go to the independent cafe and order some fine coffees such as Yejiaxuefei, Siddharma, Burundi, Colombia, Guixia, etc., and you will understand after a few drinks.
Because the aroma and taste of good coffee itself are sufficient, it is not recommended to add sugar milk, otherwise the taste of sugar milk is too heavy, which will hinder the taste of coffee; Low-end coffee lacks flavor, is bitter and astringent, and has no taste, so sugar and milk can be added to increase the pleasure of drinking coffee.
Coffee culture is similar to tea culture in China.
In the era when Lu Yu wrote The Classic of Tea, tea was not the current drinking method. At that time, the tea had to be carefully ground, mixed with various spices and salt, and fully cooked. In the Song Dynasty, it developed into fighting tea, and it was also this kind of tea noodles. It was not until the Yuan Dynasty that it developed into the drinking method of brewing tea with hot water today, and only then did it truly reflect the original taste of tea.
There are many ways to brew coffee. The most advanced one is actually the roasted coffee beans. The original coffee brewed with proper temperature and dosage, without adding sugar and milk, can truly reflect the taste of coffee, whether it is bitter or slightly sour, slightly sweet, or the cool flavor of cat excrement coffee. Only the original coffee can be reflected by hand washing. Cappuccino and mocha both highlight the milky aroma and cover the aroma of coffee, so they are not the favorite of a coffee expert. The brown sugar macchiato highlights the burnt taste of caramel and the flavor of coffee beans is not clear. Therefore, the blended espresso does not need the best coffee beans, as long as it is rich in oil, and the hand-brewed coffee has higher requirements for beans. If it is original instant coffee, it is not real coffee, because the instant coffee loses its original flavor due to excessive extraction, so it is necessary to add additives such as spices to increase the taste of coffee during post-processing, giving people the illusion of fragrance and delicious, which is actually very unhealthy, so coffee lovers should pay attention.
I have been drinking hand-ground coffee for almost a year, and it has gone through a process from the initial addition of sugar and cream to the later pure drinking. Only in this way can we taste the real coffee. Chocolate, wine, flowers and fruits, caramel, milk tea ... This is only known to people who often drink black coffee.
