Writing as a fan of the americano, I think we should just call it what it is. After all, what's more american than taking something good and watering it down?

Alternatively we could call it the italiano since that's where it originated. Or "café à l'eau" perhaps, what's more Canadian than randomly adding french. Calling it "canadiano" feels too "freedom fries" to me.

It should be left Americano. It’s called that because Americans couldn’t handle the stronger coffee or espresso and wanted it watered down. Weak. “Americano” is kinda insulting by itself. But whatever works for you.

Surprising that anyone would want to take ownership of the Americano

while I support Canada boycotting the US, you have to admit this in particular is "freedom fries" tier patriotism. it was embarrassing then, and it is embarrassing now.

I mean an Americano is just watered down espresso and AFAIK was coined to make fun of the Americans.

It was stupid with the freedom fries and it's still stupid today

In Australia we call it a long black. I think it's a great name and wish it would catch on across the pond.

Cafe con aqua

Turkish coffee has been called greek coffee(in Greece and Cyprus) ever since the turkish invasion of Cyprus (50 years ago). New generations of greeks probably arent even aware of that(or it is a neat trivia that some might have heard).

Now add a Trumpecino: extra bitter and double the price.

It's funny and the Americans being salty about this one, when their country is becoming more and more fascist every day, are even funnier. Get mad about real important things, not this 😂

Weirdest experience I ever had back in my barista days was an older gentleman approaching my counter and ordering a "GI Coffee". I had no idea what he meant and he had to explain it to me. It's an Americano.

A Canadiano sounds pretty good rn what's in it

America? No.

Way to offend the Italian, Spanish and Portuguese languages, possibly.

But...isn't the Italian word for "Canadian" "canadese"?

The Canadiano should be the Double Double (Double cream double sugar)
