The first drink you see is your coffee order personality

You can tell a lot about someone from what they order at the counter, or at least it is fun to pretend you can. This grid is stocked with sixteen cafe favorites, from a no-nonsense espresso to an affogato that is basically dessert. The first drink you see is your coffee personality. Try it on your morning crew and find out who is secretly a decaf.

Drag across the first word you see in the grid, or tap its first and last letter, to reveal what it means. Shown in the Kraft Paper template.

All 16 words and what they mean

Spoilers ahead. Find your word in the grid first, then look it up here.

  • AFFOGATOYou know that life is short, so you put ice cream in your coffee and call it lunch.
  • AMERICANOYou keep things simple and strong, and you have no patience for fuss.
  • CARAMELYou are sweet with a golden streak, and you make friends with the barista.
  • CHAIYou are warm and a little spicy, and you love a rainy afternoon with a book.
  • CORTADOYou have refined taste, a favorite cafe, and firm opinions about both.
  • DECAFYou are in it for the ritual and the mug, and you sleep beautifully because of it.
  • DRIPYou are dependable and unpretentious, and you have used the same mug for six years.
  • ESPRESSOYou are efficient, direct, and done with this meeting ten minutes ago.
  • FRAPPEYou are fun first, practical second, and you always ask for the extra whipped cream.
  • HAZELNUTYou are cozy and a little nostalgic, and your home probably smells amazing.
  • ICEDYou order it cold in January without apology, because you know who you are.
  • LATTEYou like comfort with a little polish, and you are everyone's favorite coworker.
  • MACCHIATOYou are mostly serious with a small soft spot, and you like it that way.
  • MATCHAYou are calm, a bit trendy, and your morning routine has at least four steps.
  • MOCHAYou believe every day deserves dessert, and you are absolutely right.
  • VANILLAYou are a classic for a reason, steady and quietly loved by everyone.
