Ever wondered were the coffee variation “Americano” got its name from?

The term “Americano” was coined during WWII. American GIs would order their espresso with water to dilute the strong flavour. Hence the blend came to be known as “Americano.” Till date the blend has remained unchanged, order a “Americano” at your local coffee shop and you will get your espresso brewed up with hot water.
