Think you had a Jimmy’s when you were flagging on the Stockport 200. Immediately went from wanting to get a train home to riding off the front. Restored you

Coffee with milk and chocolate flavour I think. You could try a flat white, think they’re nice.

I like cappuccino because, once you get under the froth, it’s not sickly milky like a latte is. And chocolate sprinkles are nice! Easy to pronounce- Cah-puh-chee-no
If you don’t consume animal milk then this is also a great one as oat milk whips up really well for a cappuccino.
A flat white is like a cappuccino without the froth. For some reason I just don’t like it.

Obvs some coffee nerd is going to come along now and tell me this is ALL WRONG, but whatever. Seems like a fair description to me.

I think my fave is macchiato (mah-kee-ah-to)- it’s like a strong baby cappuccino- or like an espresso with a frothy head! It’s gone in about four gulps, and that works for me.

why have restaurants started serving hot chocolate for kids but calling it a ‘babyccino’ or ‘bambinoccino’ and stupid names like that? i’m absolutely not on board.

Here’s a crazy “did you know” fact

In 2008, Farmers Union Iced Coffee outsold Coca-Cola in South Australia at a rate of almost 3:1, with South Australians consuming 36 million litres, making it the only place in the world where a milk drink outsells a cola product, and one of the few places where Coca-Cola is not the most popular locally consumed bottled beverage, a success shared only by Inca Kola in Peru and Irn-Bru in Scotland and various drinks in nearly every Asian country

Blew my mind when I read that. I like an iced coffee, but I can’t comprehend people buying iced coffee in a carton in greater numbers than Coke

I just made me first frappe of the year. No milk, lots of creamy frothy loveliness. I do it the way I had in Greece (and use the same coffee) and it’s amazing. All the stuff I’ve seen here though is just milk and sugar and gross.

no idea what that even is, sounds nice though

Been craving an iced coffee all day. Almost got a Caramel Latte at lunch but what I really wanted was just a nice strong, but milky (but not latte level milky) coffee with ice so I asked for a tap water instead.

Great contribution to thread, I’m sure you’ll all agree.

Opens up the flavours. Tastes chocolatey

Bloody love an iced latte but it has to be properly ice cold, and no sugar. Just espresso, milk and ice. Also fairly fond of just straight up iced coffee, espresso or cold brew over ice. Lovely summery drink, plus a bit of a wake-me-up.

Never tried those pre-made ones, though; I sort of instinctively believe they’ll be crap and over-sweet but I’m prepared to be wrong on that.

I was so sceptical but I actually enjoyed it
