Bedeutung
The act of consuming coffee.
Kultureller Hintergrund
The 'Påtår' rule: In most Swedish cafes, when you buy a 'bryggkaffe' (drip coffee), the second cup is free. You just go and refill it yourself. The 'Kafferast' is a sacred time. It is often written into employment contracts that workers have the right to a coffee break. If you are invited to a Swedish home, you will almost certainly be asked if you want to 'dricka kaffe' within the first 10 minutes.
The 'Påtår' is key

Strong Coffee
Swedish coffee is traditionally very strong compared to American drip coffee. Be prepared!
