Begin by brewing 2 shots of espresso using your espresso machine. Make sure to use freshly ground coffee for the best flavor.

3

Combine Espresso and Water

Once the espresso is brewed, pour the hot water over the espresso shots in a mug. The ratio of espresso to water can be adjusted according to your taste preference.

Serve and Enjoy

Your Americano is now ready to be enjoyed! You can add milk, cream, or sweeteners to taste, if desired.
