Mmm, Coffee

[rosalinda-143.livejournal.com]

What kind of coffee do you like to drink? Be specific and I only say that, because I want it for my book (just because I want too) and I need things like 'A double tall mocha hold the foam with double shot'... or whatever, and I don't really know what any of that means, or if it's real, or if that's what people say. I don't drink coffee, so I just need suggestions like that...


Plsethnxbai!

Thanks... even if i don't know what that is... sounds good though!

I actually worked in a coffee shop, and I could probably help you out. :) (Btw, in case you were wondering, when people say "shot", it just means a small amount--about 2 ounces, or so-- of espresso.)

I just prefer regular coffee, but here are some fancy shmancy drinks--

Triple shot mocha with whipped cream and cinnamon

Iced chai with an extra shot

Latte with a shot of vanilla flavoring

Cappuccino with extra foam

Quadruple shot latte with a shot of hazelnut flavoring and extra foam

Caramel frappacino with whipped cream

Just put a size in front of any of those--small, medium, or large, or you could use 12 oz, 16 oz, or 20 oz--and that should be fancy and still realistic enough for you. Hope that helps!

Why start drinking coffee? Find a tea you like a lot. It is far cheaper than a whipped whatsit with a double shot of exppresso.

I drink cappuccino with the chocolate powder atop it.

For the record, as someone who used to make and sell quite a lot of coffee, there are plenty of people who just order "regular coffee"
Which means like, milk and a coupla sugars.

Neglect not flavors, either!
Hazelnut and vanilla are quite popular.

yeah, that is true, i just wanted to add some spice to the mix. but thanks.

Don't forget that people order other things than just coffee. Chai is a popular alternative here in the US, for example, as is hot chocolate.

I like a nice mint latte, whole milk, with whip. Mmmm.

thanks, that'll definately help.

being a semi-italian snob, i have cappucinos in the morning (before 12) and afterwards macchiatos, which are espressos with a dash of milk. and sugar, of course!

thanks, this is great.

Tall, White Mocha, no whip.

I keep it pretty simple.

Don't know if you're still looking for drinks, but here's mine, as a caffeine junkie:

Quad venti peppermint mocha, skim, no whip.
