How do you take your morning coffee?(self.starbucksbaristas)
submitted by 10pumpsclassic
As a former barista, I used to often see lots of men, both in Wall Street, construction, finance, college, university, old, small, big, young, come in for coffee at Starbucks. Men, how do you drink your coffee? Is it also a sign that now as I've grown older, I'm drinking it black, as opposed to my namesake - 10 pumps of classic?

I love the white chocolate mochas. No shame.

White chocolate mocha is the perfect sweetener of shots of espresso over ice.

Grande wet cappuccino, 3 pumps vanilla, blonde, whole milk, warm
And given the ability to do it myself I combine everything in the steam pitcher and steam it all together, but I only do that if I’m making it for myself

Just a tall dark in a grande cup with three sugars and cream…I’m a simple man.

That's basically how I used to like my coffee until I weaned myself off of sugar

Hot blonde dopio or more if I'm really feeling like I need it. I also like to do pour overs to take a few minutes relaxing almost like meditating for me. If I want something sweet for a cheat I like a black and white mocha though.

The pour over meditation is so true. The timing and the aroma

When I used to work at Starbucks, I had a venti cold brew, 6 blonde shots, 2 white mocha, 2 vanilla, light cream. Now, I drink mine black.

I get up and make myself a black pour over. I use lighter roasts, sometimes I roast it myself. I use a Melitta cone but I’d really like a Chemex, I think they are beautiful. I also have an electric drip machine but I always insist on a machine that uses a cone filter - none of those flat bottomed baskets. My current one is a Zogirushi

Venti cold brew,
Lt almond milk,
2 pumps wht mocha
3 pumps mocha.
It tastes just like an 80% dark chocolate bar.

Not a man, but I am a black with 1 sugar kinda girl. Dunkin is a medium iced red eye or black eye with 2 pumps liquid sugar. Sbucks is usually whatever fancy or seasonal drink appeals to me (treat yo' self)

At Starbucks I usually go for a Tall Blonde Americano with extra Whole Milk. At home or varies day to day, but I usually have a medium roast in a french press with whole milk or an Americano with milk made in a moka pot/cafeteria

Iced brown sugar shaken espresso. Otherwise, sugarless with any bit of dairy to lighten it

I really like hot tea in the morning on my days off
But usually if I’m at work, I get a venti iced coffee, two pumps of whatever I’m in the mood for [vanilla, raspberry, pumpkin and chestnut praline are my go-tos], with either extra soy or extra oat, plus a blonde shot if I’m extra sleepy

Toffee nut latte, half syrup, oat milk and no cream. Christmas roast if possible!

What is undertoe
King_Spamula2 points1y ago
Shots underneath cold half and half or milk. It's a Starbucks specific drink, but it's not on the menu. It used to be a lot more popular years ago
Theotar2 points1y ago
I was using the answer with a question like the TV game show does. I use to be famous with the other baristas I worked with cause my under toes be so good!

Depends for me. Either tall Iced Caramel Macchiato, blonde, ristretto, almond milk; or tall Dark roast (I love Caffé Verona and Italian Roast), splash of almond milk or breve, and a half pump of brown sugar syrup. Occasionally, I will have a flat white, or just solo/doppio undertow. Solo undertow is one of my favourite mid shift drink.

I still have about 25 pounds of coffee stockpiled from when I quit back in June, so we're slowly going through it all. I drink it drip, with a tablespoon of heavy cream and a few drops of liquid stevia to cut the acidity of the coffee.
I can't wait to finish with all this coffee so I can start buying quality beans again.

cold brew, a splenda or pump or two of syrup (SF when i can), light oat or almond milk.
President-Walker1 points1y ago
2 shots on ice with 2 pumps toffee nut or hazelnut, light whole milk, and a dash of cinnamon

Black cold brew

Depends on the weather and what I’m feeling that day. But overall my choices are hot pike, iced americano, iced red eye, cold brew, or iced white mocha

Usually hot coffee I will drink black ,but I will throw in the sugar and cream from time to time-- depends on my mood. I use my pour over and prefer black. Other times, it's a venti shaken espresso with sweet cream. 😁
