According to ,
[nq:1]The name Ritazza has its root in two Italian words... "Ri" which means "another, one more, again" and "Tazza" which ... literally means... "Another Cup," something you can look forward to asking for often after you have tried our premium coffees.[/nq]
Of course, that's ***. "Another cup" would be in Italian "un'altra tazza" or "ancora una tazza."

It's probably a made-up name. If there are web pages that mention it without also mentioning coffee, I don't have the patience to find them.

But, if 'ri-' has a place in Italian meaning 'repeat', and 'tazza' means cup, then it would be reasonable to coin a word, and mean by it what they said.
