2010-06-23来源:和谐英语
  Mocha coffee beans are rare and difficult to obtain. Coffee lovers know that coffee beans are greatly affected by the area they are produced in. The soil, altitude, and climate of a coffee growing area will have great influence on the coffee’s characteristics, from its body to its flavor to its aroma.

  摩卡咖啡豆珍贵且不易获得。咖啡爱好者都知道咖啡豆的风味受其生长地区的条件影响很大。咖啡生长地的土壤、海拔和气候等因素都会极大地影响咖啡豆的特性,如纯度、风味和香气等等。

  As a type of Arabica coffee, Mocha coffee plants thrive in high altitudes and the specific climatic conditions of the port city of Mocha contributes to the coffee’s unique flavor. Today, coffee beans are often classified by growing region, making the term specific to the Arabica beans grown throughout Yemen.

  作为阿拉比卡咖啡的一种,摩卡咖啡树生长在高纬度地区,港市穆哈所特有的气候条件赋予了它独特的风味。时下,人们往往依据咖啡豆生长的地区来分类,于是摩卡咖啡这一名称只限于生长在也门地区的阿拉比卡咖啡豆。

  A cup of mocha coffee may be the best way to convert people to coffee drinking. The beans feature a balanced acidity and mild sweetness that makes for a smooth, even flavor. However, the most loved aspect of a cup of Mocha coffee is its aftertaste, which has undertones of chocolate despite the lack of actual chocolate content.

  要使一个人变得爱喝咖啡,让其品尝一杯摩卡也许会是最好的办法。摩卡咖啡豆酸度适中,清甜适口,形成了一种丝滑、均匀的口感。不过,一杯摩卡咖啡最让人难忘的还是它的余味,虽然没有巧克力的实际成分,却散发出了巧克力的韵味。

  There are endless variations on the classic mocha drink. White or dark chocolate flavoring can be used to give a uniquely different flavor to the beverage, while additional flavors can be added by the handful. Caramel, peppermint, orange, and even raspberry mochas are also common variations on the delicious chocolate infusion.

  除了经典的摩卡咖啡,人们还发展了各式各样的摩卡种类。白巧克力或黑巧克力调味料可以给摩卡咖啡带来不同的独特风味,除此之外,你还可加入少量的其他调味品。融入美味巧克力的焦糖、薄荷、橙子,甚至是莓子摩卡也都是常见的品种。
