      Einen großen schwarzen Kaffee, bitte.

      It’s the only sentence I know and, honestly, it seems to work well in most situations.

          My German is getting quite rusty, but I think I remember enough of the grammar…

          The noun “Kaffee” is masculine, so normally, the nominative form would be “der Kaffee” or “ein Kaffee”. However, in OP’s sentence, it would be a direct object, making it use the accusative form of “den/einen Kaffee”. Then, the adjective will take the same ending as the article here (though the rules are weird and complex, so that’s not always the case).

          Thus, “Einen grossen, schwarzen Kaffee” should be correct.
