Coffee and Tea Talk - 2023

It's also a smaller drink, i.e. the size of an espresso

Can't do it. I need at least 12 ounces to be satisfying.

Wish that you all could come over for a cup

Me too.

Well, I got to thinking that I never got my Amazon coffee order. Went back and looked, it isn't on my orders page. HUH??? Went and checked my bank account, and it was never charged, so that's fine. SIGH...I'll have to wait until next month to order it. You can bet I'll follow up better this time! Tonight, vanilla chai tea.

1/4 Cup Califia Farms Cookie Butter Creamer, 1/4 Cup Vanilla Cappuccino Powder, 3TB Torani Vanilla Syrup, 2Tsp Cafe Bustelo Instant Espresso, in a cup of Great Value Vanilla Almondmilk.

I got a small java mint chocolate Frappuccino from the Starbucks at the hospital. Here for my follow-up postpartum visit.

I can't decide between hot tea and hot chocolate tonight. I'm just...not sure.

The farmer's market is back! I grabbed the Cuban latte!

It was not that expensive, because they were all out of large cups so I guess I got a small.

 

[Mamanyt1953]

I think I'll have some Earl Grey tonight. It's one of my favorites.

Cool! I loved the Brown Sugar Cinnamon Latte I got from Tim Hortons.

I went to Dunkin today. They accidentally made my latte iced, so they let me keep the mistake. Yuck! I don't like iced coffee. Tastes like if you got busy and let your coffee get cold.

~ I played with my new "toy" this morning. Very fancy ! More features than the other grinder.
If you smell fresh coffee it's likely coming from my place ...

neely --I had a vanilla macchiato again yesterday at Dunkin, but this time it wasn't very good! Oh well, I guess it depends on who makes it. I wish their drinks were more consistent, especially since they are so expensive. I'll probably go back to getting the push button cappuccinos at Sunoco or the local places. They always taste good, and always under $2.

I do love that Brown Sugar Cinnamon Oat Milk Latte from Tim Horton's though! But not sure if they will have it all summer. It might be a winter drink. It's the only drink that doesn't taste like sugar water. It's got a full taste. Hard to describe what I'm looking for in a drink. I want it to be sweet, but full bodied. The push button ones are perfect, but it's fun customizing the ones at Dunkin.

Yap, that's exactly right! It's happened to me before too. I always get excited when I see one of the people I know behind the counter because then my drink will taste just the way I like it.

Dark roast black this morning and getting ready for my second one of the day soon.

Hmmmmm...not sure if I am more interested in hot chocolate or tea later on! Probably tea. Of some sort!

 

[maggiedemi]

neely Do you know what liquid sugar is? I want to try McDonalds cappuccino & latte, but on their app you have to pick regular sugar or liquid sugar.

 

[Margot Lane]

Whoa. Just had a fantastic “lomi lomi” massage which konked me out for some time. This calls for caffinated coffee.

 

[neely]

Do you know what liquid sugar is?

It's kind of like a syrup, e.g. regular sugar that's dissolved in water.

Dark roast black this morning and a medium Americano this afternoon.

Totally think you should do this…increasingly intrigued by your coffee collection (and kitties!). Bag ‘o beans and a kitten to go, please!

Having my second cup of coffee, Essentials brand with creamer. Just so good, no additional flavoring needed . I am so thankful that I made the switch from K cups.

Thanks! Would the liquid sugar be a good choice for a cappuccino or latte? I see that Dunkin has an Americano. What is that again?

 

[JamesCalifornia]

Basically this is liquid sugar with flavoring
