Riffing on Axxuy and Elena’s posts about how they drink coffee, here’s how I take my coffee… ☕️
As of March (2025) I’ve gotten into making at-home cold-brew coffee. It’s delicious! I normally take 2/3 of a pint glass with a splash of half-n-half, another splash of 2% milk, then top it off with ice (cubes). This is what I drink most of the time these days. Since I’m newish to brewing my own cold brew, I’m still exploring what types of beans I like most and have really been enjoying sampling different roasts and regions (speaking of, maybe I should start a sort of “coffeelog” where I can do some tasting notes / reviews… 🤔). Not sure what I like the most yet, but I do know that it’s far better than the french press swill I had been making before.
When I’m out ‘n about and ordering coffee, I typically go with an iced latte or sometimes just an iced coffee. I like getting the latte’s because I can’t make them at home. I never drink hot coffee. I’d rather have no coffee than have it hot. I just don’t enjoy hot beverages. When I do happen across a Starbucks, my go-to order is their Iced Brown Sugar Oatmilk Shaken Espresso, with just 1 pump of the syrup, otherwise it’s too sweet for my liking.
Cheers!
