Where the Americano Came from ?

The story goes that during World War II, American soldiers stationed in Italy weren’t exactly fond of the startlingly strong espresso that Italians tended to drink. Thus, in an effort to replicate their drip coffee back home, soldiers added water to the iconic Italian espresso shot. Voila! The Americano was born.
