What’s your poison?

I always start my day with a cup of coffee. Nothing fancy at all. I prefer the 3-in-1 sachet now. Just pour hot water in and you’re good to go. It is also one of the most saleable items in my store especially in the morning. Looks like my neighbors are coffee drinkers too. Then I saw a friend complaining on Facebook about how expensive Starbucks’ coffee are now. A long time ago, I splurge in Starbucks’ fancy frothy coffees and yummy looking sweets. I used to tell myself it’s worth the hefty price and I work hard so why not treat myself to something delicious. Lol They have these nice sounding coffee concoctions that I don’t really know. Then I saw this useful, helpful photo.
Let me know if it’s accurate or not. But really, Vietnamese coffee is like that?

@sol_cee I drink sweetened cappuccino but only because I can't taste the coffee flavor in it.

Not a regular coffee drinker but we have this small machine the makes espresso coffee using special coffee pods. Its just a bit pricey buying them so we used them occasionally. With it you can experiment on making froth and enjoy your coffee like that in starbucks or UCC.

I dont drink coffee or tea but my job back then made me drink coffee for morning meeting with clients or afternoon tea for another clients.
When i was work for several company, Starbucks was a place for meet a client and my company paid it for me. So i didnt have to worry about the price tho
But my wife loves coffee so much, she always do it everyday. Maybe my wife and you could meet for coffee time, S

I am a coffee drinker, I like espresso, macchiato, cappuccino only a few times with my breakfast the affogato (a ball of vanilla ice cream inside an espresso coffee) is something i enjoy as a dessert, better if topped with whipped cream... in this case it is called "Monte Bianco".

I start my day with coffee every morning as well. I make my own coffee at home, but once a week I’ll stop and get a Starbucks coffee on my way to work. You are right, it is very expensive.

@sol_cee No, I do not like black coffee. I usually make a latte or a cappuccino.
And thanks for your concern about my safety. The hurricane ended up missing my city completely. We didn’t even get a drop of rain from the storm.

I brew about 3 heaping tbsp freshly ground roasted organic coffee beans. I normally make strong small shot of espresso.
I offer and make cappuccino when we have visitors.

I drink strong black coffee every day. I love it, it's my drink of choice. Once in a while, I go to Starbuck's with a gift card and get a coffee there, but for the most part, I drink my coffee at home.

Cola is my poisen, I try not to drink it, but since it is always here so . . it is better just to drink water. Coffee on the other hand is good for my health, I did research and for small liver problems, the caffine does the trick. Now to stay away from the fizzy drinks. . .

@sol_cee Fizzy drinks are not really healthy, the carbon dioxide is not good in the stomach and can cause liver problems, so count yourself some points for not drinking it.

I prefer McDonald’s coffee over any of the coffee shops I’ve been to. However I have never had a Starbucks coffee. Way to expensive for me. I like to brew mine at home. Today I had a tiny amount of chocolate syrup left in a bottle so rather then just toss it out I dumped my hot coffee in it shook it up and then poured it all into my thermos. So tasty!

Great post! I love coffee made in all different ways, so I think the chart is very helpful.
My friend just got hired as a barista at Starbucks. She's happy but a bit overwhelmed about all the coffee types/combinations she must must memorize.

@BloggerDi I hope she sails through the training period. I know someone who worked at a coffee shop and ended up quitting because of the ‘pressure’
