So, today I'm in Rome, Italy, and I just had my best espresso ever this morning, so I decided to try the Americano.

And when the barista handed me this Americano, it feels suspiciously light, and when I opened it, it looked like this.

It's like very, very shallow, just a little bit more than an espresso, according to my understanding of what espresso and Americanos are.

And I was too shy to ask the barista, so I asked Chef GTP instead, and according to Chef GTP, that is how they make Americanos.

In Italy, Americanos are basically just espresso with a little bit more water, not too much water like what Americans do.
