How do you like your coffee?
I prefer a nice strong cup of black coffee with a small spoonful of cream and a dash of sugar.
On my rare visits to starbucks (my freinds like to go there but i think its wayyy to over priced) i enjoy getting a Cafe Mocha. The thing i enjoy about starbucks though is just sitting about sipping coffee with freinds.
I just got back from doing that and thought i would ask how my fellow unicyclist take their coffee.
Black with no fu-fu.
I generally get straight espresso or an americano along with a biscotti. If I’m feeling wild I’ll get espresso con panna (with whipped cream on top).
Unfortunately most mochas are glorified hot chocolate. There’s so much sugar, chocolate, and milk in them that you can’t taste that there is even coffee in there. Few coffee shops make a mocha that suites me. If it’s not too sweet and still tastes like espresso is in there I like them.
I like my coffee as black as it gets, I can’t see how people can drink coffee with sugar, it’s disgusting.
Has anyone tried this? There was this girl at work who put some of that ‘chocolate powder’ into her coffee, it’s called Nesquik in Dutch. I must’ve frowned like hell at her, because she spent the next 3 mins telling me how nice it was.
I did that in college if the drip coffee was bad, and it was usually bad. Mix in a package of instant hot chocolate and the coffee was drinkable. Got me through all nighters.
You must be from down under mate. I’d never heard of a “flat white” until I went to New Zealand last year. Everybody has a flat white over there, it was a very popular drink. It was basically the same thing as what we call a cappuccino over here. I don’t think they’d ever heard the term “cappuccino”. Kinda like how they call shopping carts “trundlers”, they call dudes “blokes”, and how they call what we know as “soccer” a “sport”.
Lukkyjay I am From Down under as you put it. A flat white is a cappuccino without the froth and chocolate sprinkles on top (hence the name). Everyone in Aus knows what a cappuccino is. not sure about your terms on our language, but like tasmanians the NZ are a little bit different from your typical Australian. Nah jokes! Just havent heard of a trundle thats all. Anyways im off to sleep have fun with your coffees.
i have home perculated espresso. half really strong coffee half milk, one sugar. the espresso is just short of being short black strength. as good as the coffee shop.
No kidding…and the coffee isn’t to die for, or anything like that. It’s just fairly normal coffee…I always get the caramel machiatto (or something like that) whenever I go, though.
The best coffee I ever had was on the way home from the TWNR release in Cleveland. There is a Tim Horton’s just across the border in Windsor Ontario. After not having one for a couple of days, the taste was beyond description.
