Never been sure about their speciality drinks although the Colombian roast is a little bit special!

I'd go for a latte if it doesn't have ice. I find ice disgusting to have in a drink now.

I swallowed a large ice cube last week and it caused me pain for several minutes :pfff:

I tried making ice cubes from apple juice thinking I'd be able to put gin over them. Turned out I needed to add more juice because my ophir was a bit too strong lol.

And it is really annoying when you buy a drink and they fill ice cubes to 75% of the glass :pfff:

I remember the time I got a black coffee stupidly thinking that it would have milk in it, but it didn't.

You should've asked for a black coffee with milk ;)

Don't ask for a "noisette" in France expecting a hazelnut latte. Not to say what I got was bad but still.

My in-laws have an ice dispenser in their fridge which was already there when they moved in their house and it would either make crushed ice which I prefer, or weird moon shaped cubes. Either way it gets a bit messy sometimes lol.

Mine is exactly the same way. Water just kinda defeats some drinks. Water itself and fruit juices aren't going to be as affected by the water I think.

It's interesting since all the black teas all taste different.

Over here we have a brand of iced tea called fuzetea that started out as being of botanical flavours but in Five Guys they did fruit flavours. I ended up getting a sugar free one by accident at first but I didn't regret it so when I refilled I went for sugar free again but in raspberry.

I meant different brands rather than types, Lyons, Tetley, Barry's etc.

The only teas I had that I recall though were black and green, thought we're extremely fond of black tea here.

I need to buy a proper coffee machine, but I want it to grind the beans for me and do everything automatically because I'm obviously too lazy. Gotta look into options.

We have one of those grinder things here for it, I must try it some day to see how it tastes, then see if it's worth the agony on my GI tract. :lol:

I used to just drink Maxwell House a lot back in the day, but now I just have maybe 2-3 cups of tea per day.

But do you have to grind it manually?

It's kind of like a blender basically that grinds it.
