The weather’s getting hot, so more often than not, you will probably want something cold to drink. But when you go to a coffee shop or a juice bar, especially when you’re traveling abroad, are you sure you understand what’s on the menu?

天气渐热,通常需要喝些冷饮来降温,但当你光顾咖啡店或果汁吧,尤其是出国旅行时,你确定自己看得懂菜单吗?

For example, what’s the difference between a shake and a smoothie? If you’re unsure, read on and get familiar with beverages that may easily confuse you.

打个比方,奶昔和冰沙有何区别?如果你还傻傻分不清,那就赶紧补上一课,了解这些饮品吧!

Milkshake

奶昔

A milkshake, or simply a shake, is a sweet, cold dairy-based drink usually made with ice cream, milk or both. Outside the US, the drink is also called a thickshake, thick milkshake, or frappe.

奶昔(英文中又简称为shake),是一种香甜冰爽的奶制饮品,其原料通常为冰淇淋或牛奶,有时两者兼备。在美国以外的地区,奶昔还被称为thickshake、thick milkshake或frappe。

The traditional way of making a milkshake is to mix scoops of ice cream and milk in a blender or drink mixer. Now, there are automatic milkshake machines that freeze and serve a premade milkshake mixture consisting of milk, sweetened flavoring and thickening agents. Milkshakes come in a variety of flavors, including vanilla, strawberry, chocolate and banana.

奶昔的传统制法是将多匙冰淇淋和牛奶放入搅拌机或奶昔机中搅拌。如今的自动奶昔机可以将牛奶、甜味剂以及增稠剂通过混合、冷冻等工序直接完成。奶昔口味众多,包括香草、草莓、巧克力以及香蕉味等等。

Smoothie

水果冰沙

A smoothie is typically a blended beverage made with fruit – frozen fruit, fruit juice, fresh fruit, any kind of fruit. It’s not a dairy mixture, but a fruit party. That’s why, normally, it’s known as a fruit smoothie. Besides fruit, a smoothie can include crushed ice, honey and syrup.

冰沙是一种极具代表性的混合果饮——原料多为冷冻水果、果汁、新鲜水果,或者任何一种水果。它并非混合乳制品,而是一个“鲜果派对”,这正是 “水果冰沙”这一名字的由来。除水果以外,水果冰沙的原料还包括冰沙、蜂蜜以及糖浆。

Smoothies are often preferred by health-conscious people for their high dietary fiber, vitamins and antioxidants. And since they have a milkshake-like consistency but are low in calories and fat, they are also called “health shakes”.

水果冰沙凭借丰富的膳食纤维、维生素以及抗氧化物而颇受“养生族”的青睐。此外,因其口感与奶昔相似,但热量与脂肪含量相对较低,水果冰沙也被称为“健康奶昔”。

Slush

雪泥

A slush, also known as a slushy, is a flavored, frozen drink made by freezing non-carbonated juice, or other liquids such as coffee or alcohol. The major difference between a slush and a smoothie is that the main ingredients of the former are sugar and water, while in the latter it’s fruit.

雪泥(英文也被称为slushy)是一种用非碳酸果汁或咖啡、酒水等饮品制成的美味冰饮。雪泥与水果冰沙的主要区别在于,前者由糖和水调制而成,而后者主料则是水果。

A slush has a soft, wet slurry texture, thanks to the slush machine, which stirs the mixture at a constant speed. This way, the sugar and water molecules bond together before the water can freeze.

物如其名,雪泥的绵润口感全靠雪泥机匀速搅拌食材而得来。通过这种方式,糖分子与水分子在水结冰之前便合二为一了。

Frappuccino

星冰乐

A Frappuccino is a trademarked type of frozen coffee beverage sold by Starbucks. It consists of coffee or other base ingredients, such as strawberries and cream, blended with ice and other ingredients, and usually topped with whipped cream. Now, many coffee makers add various additional ingredients. But this type of drink, with coffee, ice and whipped cream, is commonly known as a Frappuccino.

星冰乐(Frappuccino)是星巴克的一种标志冰镇咖啡饮料。作为星巴克的注册商品,星冰乐以咖啡、草莓、奶油等为基本原料,与冰块以及其它材料混合而成,通常杯顶冠以鲜奶油。如今,许多咖啡制造商又在此基础上加入各式各样的材料。但这种由咖啡、冰和鲜奶油组成的混合饮品通常仍被称为“星冰乐”。

Float

冰淇淋苏打

A float, or ice cream soda, is a beverage that consists of ice cream in a soft drink. It also has other names such as coke float, snowball or spider. Float flavors vary depending on the soda variety and the ice cream flavor, but the most popular ones are chocolate ice cream with carbonated water, and root beer or coke with vanilla ice cream.

冰淇淋苏打(英文也被称为ice cream soda)是一款冰淇淋加软饮的饮料,英文中,还被称为coke float(可乐浮冰)、snowball(雪球)或spider(译者注:澳大利亚口语中意为:冰淇淋苏打)。它的口味因汽水和冰淇淋口味的不同而变化无穷,其中人气最高的几款组合要数巧克力冰淇淋加苏打水,香草冰淇淋配沙士或可乐。
