Bicerin (pronounced in Piedmontese) is a traditional hot drink native to Turin, Italy, made of espresso, drinking chocolate and whole milk served layered in a small rounded glass. In the USA heavy cream may be used instead of milk.〔http://www.nytimes.com/2006/02/08/dining/081orex.html?_r=0〕 In 2001 bicerin was recognized as a "traditional Piedmontese product" in the (official bulletin ) of the Piedmont region. ==Origin== The word ''bicerin'' is Piedmontese for "small glass" and is a clear dialect version of Italian ''bicchierino'' (diminutive of ''bicchiere'', "glass"). The beverage has been known since the 18th century and was also praised by Alexandre Dumas in 1852. It is believed to be based on the 17th century drink ''Bavareisa'': the key distinction is that in a bicerin the three components are carefully layered in the glass rather than being mixed together. Caffè al Bicerin, a historic coffeehouse of Turin, has been serving the drink in Turin's piazza della Consolata since the 18th century, right across from the Santuario della Consolata, and some authorities believe that the drink was invented there. Others believe that it originated around 1704 in Caffè Fiorio, which still stands on what is now via Po. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Bicerin」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
