There are many world-famous coffee brands, and most of these coffee shops operate in chain form, so the quality of their coffee products tends to be relatively stable. Generally, customers who go to coffee chain shops to drink coffee will mostly order espresso-based products.

Espresso-based products are made using espresso machines. Coffee beans are ground extremely finely, and then pressurized hot water is quickly passed through the coffee grounds through the machine to extract highly concentrated coffee liquid.

Since drinking it directly would be very strong, everyone likes to drink lattes or flavored milk coffee (with flavored syrup added) made with espresso as the base. Those who don't like milk or are trying to lose weight and stay fit will choose Americano, which is diluted with water.

1. Starbucks (United States, founded in 1971)

Starbucks coffee shops are filled with a rich North American atmosphere. Here, you can taste more than 30 varieties of carefully roasted premium coffees from coffee growing regions such as Central America, Africa, and Indonesia, while also experiencing a series of handcrafted beverages and freshly baked pastries offered by Starbucks.

All Starbucks coffee is freshly ground within 1 hour to preserve the original coffee flavors from Indonesia and Latin America. Starbucks' standard is: every customer's order is made on the spot, completed within 20 seconds, and immediately served to the customer.

A rich, uniquely flavored, and aromatic espresso is precisely Starbucks' signature weapon.
