The Best Coffee Order For Your Zodiac Sign
Coffee makes the world go around – literally. Across cultures and regions, people love to start their morning with a nice cup of java. Maybe you rely on your morning coffee to help wake you up first thing before work, or you like a shot of espresso in the afternoon to carry you through the day. No matter what your preferences are – sweet or unsweetened, hot or iced, light or dark roast – there’s a coffee order that fits your taste. However, with so many different drinks to choose from, it can be hard to step outside your comfort zone.
We’ve all been there before, standing in front of a coffee shop menu, confused because we don’t know the difference between a latte and a cappuccino. And is there anything worse than trying something new – only for the flavor to fall flat? No, not really. Sure, ordering a new coffee flavor sounds fun, in theory, but it can be much more complicated than you think. No wonder most people stick with the same coffee order every morning.
But switching things up every now and again can be fun, we promise! That’s why we’ve decided to consult the cosmos to help find the best coffee order for each zodiac sign. Your zodiac sign says a lot about your personal tastes and favorite things. So if you’re looking for something new to order the next time you hit up your local coffee shop, or you’re a newbie who needs tips on what to try, turn to the stars to find your next cosmic caffeine fix.
Read on to find out the type of coffee you should order based on your zodiac sign.
Aries: Americano
Aries are the hot-blooded high-achievers of the zodiac. You like to start your day early and keep things moving until you run out of energy. With so much to do, and so little time to get it done, you're someone who likes a little boost of energy to help you along. That's why we think you'll find a new favorite coffee order in the classic Americano. Americano is made by topping off an espresso with hot water, resulting in a smoother and deeper brew. Plus, it packs as much caffeine as a regular cup of coffee! With this drink in hand, you'll be ready to take on the world.
Taurus: Dalgona Coffee
Taurus is a lover of luxury – and so you'll spare no expense when it comes to your favorite food and drinks. You're not someone who wakes up with the sun; you prefer to let the day unfold in its own time. And whether you hit snooze one or five times before rolling out of bed in the morning, coffee is an absolute must for you to get the day started. Dalgona coffee is a hand-whipped coffee made by mixing instant coffee powder, sugar, and hot water until it becomes creamy and then adding it to cold or hot milk. For the sign with elevated tastes, nothing will hit the spot like this creamy and delicious beverage.

Sagittarius: Red Eye
Sagittarius never has the same morning routine – because you never live the same morning twice! One day you're just killing time before work, and the next, you're on a plane to an exotic location to meet your friends. Life is one unexpected adventure after another for you, so it's no surprise you're a lover of strong coffee; you need the energy! A red eye coffee is drip coffee with espresso poured over the top. It tastes a lot like an Americano; instead of using hot water, you use brewed coffee instead. There’s a lot of caffeine in this one. And on those mornings when you’ve got places to go and people to meet – you’ll be glad you have it!
Capricorn: Cortado
Capricorn is a straight shooter who likes to keep things simple. You're someone who plans your days down to the minute – and you don't like to waste your time making frivolous decisions. Capricorns would rather spend the morning getting everything in order to start the day off on the right foot. With so much to do, and so little time to get it done, you need all the help you can get. Which means a coffee order with a little extra kick. Cortado is made with a double shot of espresso that’s topped off with steamed milk to “cut” the espresso’s intensity. The result is an extra boost of caffeine and flavor that will keep you moving, grooving, and making moves all day long.

Aquarius is the fun-loving rebel of the zodiac. You like to keep people guessing what you'll do next, and you hate being told what to do.

Pisces is the daydreamer of the zodiac – so is it any surprise how much you love sleeping in? You like to spend your morning thinking of all the wonderful adventures you'll tackle during the day.
