I don't know if the author is American but americanos are not an American thing so they are likely not in the US.

> americanos are not an American thing

Certainly every coffeeshop here in Seattle has them and and I expect most do elsewhere too.

Espresso has taken over coffeeshops such that some won't also have drip coffee anymore and if that's what you want, an Americano is approximately how to get it.

Challenge: Find a coffee shop in the US that doesn't have Americano on the menu.

Most cafes even chains like Starbucks sell americanos in the USA.
