I, like many of you, love coffee. I decided to look into coffee drinking habits of various countries. Here is what I found. This information was obtained from the Huffingtonpost.
Germany: Pharisäer
The Germans know how to warm up a cup of coffee: sneak two ounces of rum in it. Mix dark coffee, rum and sugar to taste, and top it with whipped cream.
Vietnam: Egg Coffee
This decadent coffee is more like a full-on dessert: beat two egg yolks with a half teaspoon each of condensed milk, honey and vanilla extract until fluffy. Pour into a cup and top with hot black Vietnamese coffee. The egg mixture will float to the top, where you can spoon it into your mouth or drink right away.
Spain: Cafe Bombón

This popular Spanish coffee is for those who like it sweet. Mix equal parts strong coffee with sweetened condensed milk.
Turkey: Turkish Coffee

It’s said every Turkish family has its own recipe for this tradition. Super-finely ground coffee is brewed in a copper pot called a cezve, sweetened and boiled several times over heat. It’s kind of complicated, but well worth the work.
France: Cafe au Lait

Traditional cafe au laits are essentially equal parts brewed coffee and steamed milk. To spice it up, we like to add chicory, like they do at New Orleans’ Cafe du Monde.
Austria: Kaisermelange

The kaisermelange (or “emperor’s blend”) is popular Austrian way of drinking dark coffee, served with an egg yolk, sugar and cognac. Some people blend the yolk with sugar and maybe a little milk.
