Italian Beverages Can Anyone Tell Me About Italian Drinks And Beverages?

Can anyone tell me about Italian drinks and beverages? - italian beverages

Hi, I work for my Italian language course and one of the things we need to do is a letter to an Italian restaurant (it is in English). The problem is, I can imagine no other Italian drink, because there is a restaurant in the style of the family should not - alcoholic beverages and all CNA Italian tell me the exact name of Italian beverages?

Thanks

In Italy there is a restaurant in the style of the family, no restaurants. The menu is for adults and children, the parents just do not to not drink for the child.
Here you will find different sections
Vini (Wine)
White wine (white wine)
vino rosso () red wine, but was by that particular name Chianti or Barolo.

Acqua naturale (not) with mineral water
Acqua Frizzante (mineral water)
Acqua Minerale (mineral water)
Birra (beer, you can use different types)

Alcoholic Beverages
You can find a generic: bibite in lattina (to drink) or brand name
Chinotto
Fanta (orange Aranciata)
Coca-Cola and Pepsi (in Europe, we, too, I have a bottle in my fridge only).

Espresso and served the meal, never with the appetizers.
Caffelatte and cappuccino are served only in brekfast.

Here you will find a different page in the menu, Italian restaurant. a search on Google with the word "Restaurant" and a city like Florence or Venice or Rome. Checking in Italian waand

The alcoholic (Beh-Leh vahn-deh) / The bibite (BEE-BEE-teh Leh drinks) =
Acqua naturale (KWAHO AH-nah-to-RAH-Leh) = non-carbonated water
Acqua Frizzante (AH-Dzan KWAHO free-teh) = carbonated water
Coca-Cola (not Pepsi in Europe)
Fanta (Fahn-TAH) = Fanta () a kind of orange drink carbonated
Caffè (kah-FEH) = Coffee
Espresso (EH-Sprehe-SSOH) = espresso (small intense "shot" of coffee)
Café au lait (FEH kah-LAH-teh)) = latte (coffee with milk
Capuchino (kah-poo-chee-noh) = cappuccino (coffee with milk, no foam)
Wine (VEE-noh) = Wine

There are many more (various wines, coffee, etc.), but there should be a clear list of what in most Italian cafes.
