single Mokka with cream
Explanation:
Passenderweise habe ich hier gerade ein paar Beschreibungen eines Kunden, der im Kaffeegeschäft tätig ist:

kleiner Brauner: Ein Mokka in kleiner Schale, mit Kaffeeobers serviert

Wobei "Kaffeeobers" hier in Wien und im restlichen Österreich "Kaffeesahne" ist. Milch ist definitiv keine drin.
