the coffee shop around the corner from my office
I ordered a Red Eye from the guy behind the counter. The girl making it didn’t understand his code, but I kind of like it.
A Red Eye is a regular coffee with a shot of espresso added to it. I drink this a lot. Usually with a tiny whisper of cream and a dash of Splenda.
These are the drinks I regularly order, from most- to least frequent:
- Regular coffee, black
- Regular coffee, dash of cream and a dash of Splenda
- Red Eye
- Latte with soy milk
- Iced coffee, dash of cream and a dash of Splenda (will work its way up the list as the weather warms)
- Latte with rice milk
- Decaf coffee, black
- Decaf coffee, dash of cream and a dash of Splenda
- Irish Breakfast Tea, liberal splash of half and half and a teaspoon of sugar
- Fancy hippie wildberry tea, liberal squeeze of honey
- Horribly sweet caramel/sea salt latte, with soy milk and a side of regret
