Greek Coffee Culture

Drinking coffee in Greece is a whole different experience than in other places of the world. Here, people like to sip on their coffee for hours, conversing with their friends, enjoying each other's company. You can see Greeks sitting outside the cafés all day long into the night. The most popular coffee here in Greece is the Nescafé Frappe. It is a powdered coffee frothed and with ice. You can have it with sugar and milk or water, however you like. The other coffees are fredo espresso, fredo cappuccino, Greek coffee, and cappuccino. All of these coffees have either a layer of froth or steamed/ frothed milk on top. I think this makes the coffee much more enjoyable because it adds a whole element of texture to the coffee instead of just having a liquid consistency. The coffee here is strong and flavorful. There's nothing better in the summer than to sip on a frappe and enjoy the beautiful view of the Aegean Sea while talking to your friends and enjoying life.
