Whenever I go into a coffee shop, I know what I want but I don't know how to order it. I usually ask for a short, double-shot Americano with lots of room, or I ask for a double espresso with a double shot of hot water. What I want is a cross between an Americano and an espresso, but I don't want to use ten words to describe such a simple drink. So the other day I came up with espressicano, and ordered one at my favorite drive-up coffee stand on the way up to the CITW. The barista laughed, but she knew what I wanted.
Cool! Maybe we can start a trend. If each you, my six loyal readers, used espressicano to order a coffee, it could go viral! Who knows, it could be another "shot heard 'round the world."
