==== Greece ====
Greece has a surprisingly strong and present coffee culture. There are two main places where coffee is consumed: the {{transliteration|el|kafeteria}} and the {{transliteration|el|[[kafenio]]}}. The {{transliteration|el|kafeteria}}, which changes from cafe to bar at night, is mainly for young people under 35 years old to meet and hang out. The {{Lang|el-latn|kafeneio}} is where all the old gentlemen used to meet during the popular "schools of the wise". The popular drink of the {{Lang|el-latn|kafeneio}} is the {{Lang|el-latn|ellinikós kafés}}, which is very similar to [[Turkish coffee]]. Its grains are also used for fortune telling after the person finishes drinking. However, [[Frappé coffee|frappé]]s have become more popular among the young in {{transliteration|el|kafeterias}}. The Greek frappé is a mix of [[Nescafé]] [[instant coffee]], milk, and sugar frothed up and poured over ice.

Greece

Greece has a surprisingly strong and present coffee culture. There are two main places where coffee is consumed: the kafeteria and the kafenio. The kafeteria, which changes from cafe to bar at night, is mainly for young people under 35 years old to meet and hang out. The kafeneio is where all the old gentlemen used to meet during the popular "schools of the wise". The popular drink of the kafeneio is the ellinikós kafés, which is very similar to Turkish coffee. Its grains are also used for fortune telling after the person finishes drinking. However, frappés have become more popular among the young in kafeterias. The Greek frappé is a mix of Nescafé instant coffee, milk, and sugar frothed up and poured over ice. Recent years have seen the rise in popularity of iced espresso-based coffees, such as espresso freddo (mixed with ice, then poured over ice) and cappuccino freddo (same, but with a layer of cold frothed milk poured on top).
