Vienna's coffee of the coachmen: strong black coffee under a thick cap of whipped cream, sipped through the cream without stirring. Einspänner means a one-horse carriage.

Vanilla ice cream: A scoop or two of vanilla ice cream in a cup, served with a spoon.
Affogato: Italian for "drowned": a scoop of vanilla ice cream with a hot shot of espresso poured over it, eaten with a spoon while the two melt together.
Matcha affogato: The Japanese café take on an affogato: freshly whisked matcha poured over vanilla ice cream in place of the espresso.
Cold brew float: Cold brew over ice with a scoop of vanilla ice cream floated on top, like a root beer float.
Espresso con panna: "With cream": a shot of espresso capped with a spoonful of whipped cream, the way Italian bars have served it for a century.
Iced einspänner: An iced americano under a thick lid of whipped cream, a favourite in Korean cafés: the cold coffee comes up through the cream with every sip.
