ブラックコーヒーのメリットについて。
しばらく紅茶にハマってたけど、やっぱ朝と仕事終わりはコーヒーだなぁと。味やカフェインというよりも、香りで脳が切り替わるのよねえ。もちろんブラックしか飲みません。
an acquired taste
意味 良さがわかるのに時間のかかる物 [人, 作品など].
While black coffee might be something of an acquired taste, there are a lot of good reasons you should consider making the switch. Black coffee offers many benefits, including preventing certain cancers and neurodegenerative conditions — plus, it’s rich in antioxidants.

おお、これはこういう言い回しなのか！
「acquire→獲得する…ん？獲得した味…で？慣れ親しんだ味？…だったらWhileって変じゃない？」って結構考え込んでしまったw TOEICで完全にペース乱れるやつだw
virtually
意味 ほとんど, ほぼ (almost); 実質的には, 事実上, 実際には (practically)
Black coffee also has virtually no calories, since the beverage is made up solely of coffee beans and water. Infusing your coffee with heavy creams and sweeteners, or other things high in saturated fat, can bring about opposite effects and leave you feeling lethargic. These added ingredients can even eventually lead to long-term issues like heart disease if consumed in excess.

だよねー。コーヒーに砂糖やミルク入れるなら、いっそコーラやアイスクリーム選ぶわ。
reign
意味 〈王· 女王が〉君臨する, 在位する
While we’re no stranger to the occasional caramel macchiato or a splash of Coffee mate in our cups, it’s best to take these things in moderation. If you want to make the most of your mornings, black coffee still reigns king — especially when you’re out at a restaurant.

indulge
意味 [～ in A]〈人が〉A〈趣味· 欲望など〉にふける, A を楽しむ; A〈悪事など〉に興じる
When you sit down at a diner or restaurant for brunch, indulging in a hot mug of coffee is a familiar comfort. But rather than fresh cups of milk and cold creamers, most of these establishments only keep unrefrigerated, single servings of cream handy. While these hazelnut and vanilla-flavored creamers might taste good, they’re not so great for you.

カルディでフレーバーコーヒーのドリップ買ってみたけど（バニラとチョコレート）まだ試してないな…。
フレーバー紅茶にひととおりハマってから気づいたんだけど、私貧乏舌だから「バニラエッセンス垂らせば満足」なのよねぇ、残念w
pasteurized
意味 〈牛乳などが〉低温殺菌された.
These miniature cups are ultra-pasteurized, which is why they can stay out unrefrigerated. While this process is supposed to quell any harmful bacteria that could permeate the creamers and extend shelf life, the single-serve additives are typically riddled with anything but cream. Hydrogenated oils, sugar, and other harmful ingredients are typically what makeup each small carton.

こういう単語は、それこそカルディで買った輸入食材の裏面読み込んで（日本語シールと見比べられるのが理想）覚えるのが一番だよなー。
abundance
意味 (かたく)[具体例では an ～]大量, 豊富; 余分
Beyond its healthy abundance of antioxidants, black coffee is probably doing more for you than you might think. Studies on the many benefits of black coffee has risen over the years, and we learn more and more about what it can do for us everyday.

cringe
意味 （恐怖などで） すくむ, 後ずさりする, 畏縮する
While many people view black coffee to be for real heavy hitters, the drink can be for everyone and have a balanced taste, and even a robust and appealing taste when it’s brewed correctly. If it’s been a while since you tried your cup without cream, or cringed even before you took a sip of black coffee, try again with a fresh perspective. Diving into the little flavors hidden inside each brew might soon become your new passion.

苦味より甘みが強いものとかあるからね。インスタントだけどモカは甘いと思う。
