My Starbucks Order
I love lattes. I was just visiting a Starbucks down the road, and ordered my evening usual (Decaf Extra Foam Tall latte, with a splash of coffee cream). I was then reminded how picky I am about my lattes. They have to be perfect. I like my espresso shot best pulled between 18-22 seconds. I can tell if it's less or more. It's gross. I also like my latte to be 155 degrees. Not too hot, not too cold. I also like fresh milk. Many a time milk used for previous drinks, is re-steamed (usually to piping hot) and it's gross. I can tell. And most importantly, I want a sleeve. Or, if there are no sleeves available, double cup it please. I wish I could order my drink like this:

Decaf Extra Foam, Fresh Milk, 155 Degree , 18-22 second shot, Tall Latte with a splash of coffee cream and a sleeve

But I would probably get kicked out.

    ahahaha! You are the most picky coffee drinker I've ever met! I dare you to do that when you come here and give those Safeway Starbucks people a run for their money!

    Wow! You ARE a coffee snob :)

    I used to work at a place where I roasted fresh coffee beans so I'm a bit of a snob, too but I'll settle for a Tim Horton's during Roll Up The Rim time.
