    For those asking: a red eye is a mug of brewed coffee with an espresso shot added.

    I’ve seen them made with pour overs, clevers and drip machines.

    Imagine a stronger/dirtier Americano.

    There’s debate as to whether the name originates from air travelers on “red eye” (overnight) flights wanting stronger coffee at the airport due to exhaustion or whether it’s about the bloodshot eyes that too much caffeine consumption combined with insufficient sleep will get you.
