500-calorie Venti Mocha Latte Sugar-Whip Poll

[dplax]

I mostly drink hot chocolate and tea. One mug in the morning of hot chocolate, and rarely, if I feel like it I will have tea.

I couldn't answer the poll - don't drink coffee. I'm not much on bitter flavours, and to make it palatable would mean putting so much sugar and crap in in that it would be unhealthy [img]graemlins/angel.gif[/img] . And if I did drink it, I wouldn't be buying cups of overpriced blends because I couldn't justify spending money on something like that.

Thanks for posting though. It's always heartwarming when you post a poll about coffee and a non-drinker replies [img]tongue.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img]

To answer the question at hand - yes, I do drink coffee with the works, but not nearly as often as I'd like. Firstly, all the good coffee stores are miles away from me, and secondly, I'm often too poor to be able to spend four or five dollars on a single drink anyway.

Well, as for being poor (and/or frugal), amen. However, as for the dearth of stores, you should walk with me to work some day. 13 blocks and at least 8 coffee shops along the way, no matter which way I take. Which is why I posted the poll. One wonders how they all stay afloat.

I'm sure you're spoilt for choice, walking to work in Chicago. You wanna try rural Maine - I have to drive an hour to get to someplace as basic as Walmart. Finding a coffee-shop is a real ordeal and often practically a day-trip. I'd swap with you any day

[/QUOTE]LOL - Davros coughs and splutters whilst driking his Milo - I know what that is all about [img]smile.gif[/img] . Add me to the list of non-coffee drinkers that have replied then - I only drink cofee when I am on vacation and staying in a hotel. It's OK to have someone else make coffee for you, but making it yourself is too much hard work. When I do drink coffee it is usually a cappucino with 2 sugars.

Luckily, Chicago has Caribou Coffee as an alternative chain. Where they don't degrade you by making you say words like "Venti." So, only a bit more than half were Starbucks.

If Starbucks opened in Italy, would they call it "Small, Medium, and Large" in order to be exotic there? [img]graemlins/1ponder.gif[/img]

Seriously though, I drink coffee with a little cream and unsweetened iced tea almost daily. I drink the coffee coacoa drinks only as an occasional treat. Usually with hot cinnamon rolls! Mmmmmmmmm!
