About this word search

This list is for people who take their brew seriously. A Ristretto is a shorter, more concentrated shot than a regular espresso, a Lungo a longer one, and a Cortado cuts espresso with a small amount of warm milk. On the tea side, Darjeeling and Assam are named for regions of India, Earl Grey is flavored with bergamot, and Lapsang souchong gets its smoky taste from being dried over pine fires.

Words run in all eight directions, reversed ones included. Lapsang souchong and Tea strainer are long and written without spaces. Double letters narrow the search, such as the CC in Macchiato and the FF in Affogato.

At a tea gathering or book club, the finished sheet is a good excuse to compare favorites.

Ways to use this word search

  • With your coffee

  • On the go

    Slip a few printed sheets into your bag for the train, a waiting room or a weekend away. A pen is all you need, no screen required.

  • Puzzle together

    Bring the sheet to your book club, a night in with friends or a visit to your parents and see who finds every word first. Or play online and find out who is fastest.
