Here’s a quick tidbit I always have in the back of my mind:

If it’s an Italian name, it’s espresso-based, for example:

Americano - Espresso and water
Latte - Espresso and regular milk
Cappuccino - Espresso and steamed milk
Breve - Espresso and steamed half-and-half

If it’s a French name, it’s coffee-based, for example:

Café - Plain coffee, sometimes called Café Noir Café au Lait - Coffee and regular milk Café Cremé - Coffee and cream (or sometimes half-and-half) Café Americano - Coffee and water, it’s the French version of the Italian style.

What’s the difference between coffee and espresso? Coffee is brewed and steeped. Espresso is created by forcing water through very, very densely-packed coffee grounds using high pressure. Coffee is typically enjoyed in cups and espresso is typically consumed in “shots” because of the strong flavor.
