Alton Brown of the Food Network occasionally posts about having a cortado to get him going in the morning. I was pretty sure that a cortado was some kind of coffee-based drink, confirmed when he posted a picture of himself drinking it. But I didn't know what it really was.

I'll have to remember then to get myself a cortado.
