Coffee

From country to country I think the most interesting difference that impacts almost everyone is coffee. Espresso is the norm and to get something close to American coffee you add 1/2 milk to get a latte or au lait. In Nicaragua they boiled instant coffee and mixed it with milk. It was similar in Cuba. So it is no surprise that coffee makers vary as well. 

Drip coffee is pretty American. Pressurized is European but much stronger in taste. To which I present the single serve percolator 

Water in the bottom, a scoop of coffee in the strainer above. Screw it all together and place on the hot stove and in five minutes the steam is forced through the grounds and up a tube where is condenses as good coffee. Just hard to set a timer.
