===''Freddo cappuccino''=== In Greece and Cyprus, a cold cappuccino is widespread known as ''freddo cappuccino'', as opposed to ''cappuccino freddo''. Despite its Italian name, the drink both tastes and is prepared differently from its Italian counterpart, and is uncommon outside of Greece. ''Freddo cappuccino'' is topped with a cold milk-based foam known as ''afrógala'' (Greek: {{lang|el|αφρόγαλα}}), which is created by blending cold milk using an electric frother. These frothers are commonplace in Greek coffee shops due to their usage during the preparation of [[frappé coffee]]. The foam is then added to espresso poured over ice.<ref>{{cite web |last=Tsolakidou |first=Stella |title=Summer Coffee in Greece: Frappe Vs.
