Tips for using coffee cups

‌Tips for using coffee cups‌ include the correct way to hold the cup, how to add sugar and stir, etiquette when drinking, and the maintenance and cleaning of coffee cups.

Correct way to hold the cup
‌Hold the cup handle with your right hand and hold the saucer with your left hand‌: When drinking coffee, you should use the thumb and index finger of your right hand to pinch the cup handle, while holding the saucer with your left hand. This way of holding is not only elegant, but also prevents coffee from splashing out‌.
‌Avoid putting your fingers through the cup handle‌: When holding the coffee cup, you should avoid putting your fingers through the cup handle to avoid burns‌.
How to add sugar and stir
‌Use a coffee spoon to add sugar‌: When adding sugar to coffee, you can use a coffee spoon to scoop sugar and add it directly into the cup. If it is a sugar cube, first use a sugar tongs to hold it on the side of the coffee saucer close to you, and then use a coffee spoon to add it to the cup‌.
‌Correct stirring method‌: When stirring coffee, place the coffee spoon in the center of the coffee cup, first make a circle clockwise from the inside to the outside, then make a circle counterclockwise from the outside to the inside to the center, and repeat this action to make the coffee uniform.
Etiquette when drinking
‌Sip slowly and taste slowly‌: When drinking coffee, you should sip slowly and taste it slowly, avoid drinking it all in one breath like drinking boiled water, and do not drink several cups in a row like drinking tea or juice. You should enjoy it step by step like tasting tea or wine.
‌Avoid blowing it cool with your mouth‌: If the coffee is too hot, you can stir it gently with a coffee spoon to cool it down, or wait for it to cool down naturally before drinking. Blowing the coffee cool with your mouth is an inelegant action‌.
Maintenance and cleaning of coffee cups
‌Preheating the cup‌: Before using the coffee cup, you can choose to preheat the cup. You can pour hot water into the cup for a while and then pour it out, which can help maintain the temperature of the coffee.
‌Regular cleaning‌: Clean the coffee cup regularly to keep it clean and hygienic. Use a neutral detergent and a soft cloth to clean the coffee cup, or squeeze some lemon juice bubbles and then rinse it to avoid damaging the cup.
