An Americano is just an espresso with hot water.
The drink was invented by US soldiers stationed in Italy during the second world war.
They found that normal espresso was too strong, so they started diluting it with hot water.
The drink keeps the flavor of espresso, but is lighter and less intense.
My little sister studied in Barcelona a few years ago.
She prefers Americano to tea.
I rarely drink coffee because I don't like its bitterness.

美式咖啡其实是浓缩咖啡加热水稀释制成的
据说是驻扎在意大利的美国士兵发明的，他们觉得正常的浓缩咖啡太浓烈，於是用热水稀释。
这种饮品保留了浓缩咖啡的味道，但味道更淡，不那么浓烈。
我妹妹几年前在巴塞罗那读书。她更喜欢美式咖啡而不是茶。
咖啡的苦味让我敬而远之。
