Ammazzacaffè
Template:Short description Script error: No such module "Unsubst". Template:Italics title
Ammazzacaffè (Script error: No such module "IPA".; Template:Literally) is a small glass of liqueur usually consumed after coffee to dull its taste or the effects of caffeine.[1] It is a common Italian custom, especially after a generous festive meal.
Ammazzacaffè originated with the aristocracy, where it was common to move to a different room to smoke and to serve a cognac or brandy after dinner. It was eventually assimilated into popular culture, and is a common custom in Italy, even at lunch. It is usually a form of bitters, or a local liqueur. In some northern regions such as Veneto and Trentino, people used to rinse out the emptied coffee cup with liqueur (traditionally grappa) that they would then drink (resentin); this also happens in Piedmont, where this custom is called "pusacaffè".
