Caffe crema is a long espresso drink primarily served in southern Switzerland and Austria and northern Italy (1980s onwards), along the Italian/Swiss and Italian/Austrian border. As a colorful term it generally means "espresso", while in technical discussions, referring to the long drink, it may more narrowly be referred to as Swiss caffè crema. Variant terms include "crema caffè" and the hyperforeignism "café crema" – "café" is French, while "caffè" and "crema" are Italian, thus "café crema" mixes French and Italian. In French, "cream coffee" is used instead "café crème".
