Answer: Joe

I'm sure you've heard of a cup of joe, right? If you haven't, now you know the next time you hear someone say this that they mean a cup of coffee.

Coffee is one of the world's most consumed beverages. It can be had straight up, with milk, cream and sugar, or even Irish style. I'll let you look that one up if you desire to know what it means.
