Three Greek coffees among the world’s best

·

The recent list of top coffee drinks worldwide, presented by Taste Atlas, features 62 varieties, with three Greek coffees securing spots in the Top 10.

Taking the number one spot is Café Cubano, a unique espresso style from Cuba, also known as Cuban espresso or Cuban coffee, celebrated for its rich flavor. In second place is Indian filter coffee, while Greece’s Espresso Freddo ranks third.

According to cycladesopen.gr, Espresso Freddo is a distinctive Greek coffee that blends espresso with ice. Unlike similar iced coffees that simply pour coffee over ice, this Greek version involves mixing the two ingredients until the coffee is lightly chilled, smooth, and creamy. Espresso Freddo gained popularity in the 1990s and remains a favorite across Greece today.

In fourth place is Cappuccino Freddo, another Greek iced coffee variation. Made with a double espresso shot mixed with ice, strained, and poured over fresh ice, this drink is topped with chilled milk that has been shaken until it reaches a light, foamy texture.

Finally, in seventh place, is the Greek Frappe. This refreshing coffee is made by combining instant coffee with water and ice, then shaking it or blending it by hand. When poured, the drink develops a rich foam layer on top.
