  • The Matcha+Chocolate+Jalapeno drink should be called the Shreckuccino
  • please make the cursed drink a customer ordered when I worked at Starbucks; the pumpkin water... literally it was just pumpkin spice sauce and water... weirdest order I ever took.

    I wish I had a real source to cite for this, but I think the "dirty" matcha or any matcha + coffee + chocolate combo came about thanks to Hiroshi Sawada. He opened his first US shop called Sawada Coffee back in 2015 (here in Chicago), and the signature drink is a military latte. It's an espresso and matcha with vanilla and some cocoa powder, and it was named for the green and brown colors that resembled camo. I highly recommend pairing it with the complementary military donut!
  • As a Starbucks barista my favorite thing someone ordered that confused me and then surprised me over how good it was was chai in steamed lemonade. Shockingly good.

    This is not something I order in a cafe, but at home I love to make for myself a honey rose iced latte. I pour some hot water over rose petals, let it steep for 5 mins and then add to iced coffe with milk and honey and that's it. You can balance it by adding more honey to make it sweeter or steeping the petals longer up to 10 mins to make it more idk natural and almost minty. Very summery, flowery and refreshing drink

    As a lifelong marshmallow afficianado, I'm intrigued by the marshmallow espresso. Next time try putting the marshmallows in the cup first and then brew directly over them!
  • when she said "that is LOVELY!" it just makes me wanna drink all the coffee she's ever made
  • A drink I really like that gets a few people turning their heads before they tried it was called a "cherry bomb." It was a barista's specialty drink who no longer works at the café i got it at. I think it was a white chocolate mocha late with cherry syrup, cinnamon, and cayenne pepper mixed in, and as a sprinkle on top as a garnish~ sweet spicy and delicious 😋 is what I remember about it. Cayenne has a softer profile than jalapeños I think, but still has that kick ;)

    Not a particularly weird combo, but a mocha with orange syrup (not juice). Very nice twist on a standard mocha.
  • @kintsunegi
    I love how the chapters go from nicely named and organized to a chaotic not even given a properly named title lol
  • I'm picturing, in a competition setting and in Morgan's comp-presentation-voice, "the tactile is alarming" and it's cracking me up way more than it has any right to.
  • @juriasella
    i once scared my local coffee shop when I was bone-tired and also the weather was to warm for anything milky by ordering a raspberry frappe (so basically blended frozen raspberries and ice and it is all over on its own great) with a double espresso shot...they looked at me horrified - quite honestly - and were like "are you sure?" and I was like "yes, please" so, yeah, I found it to be amazing and maybe a drink you could make for the next "weird coffee orders" (it would also be more coffee adjacent)
  • 1/4 espresso (double shot), blueberry syrup, 1/4 heavy cream, 2/4 whole milk cold. Delicious festive drink
  • @Ultravox5600
    ✨A dash of marshmallow liquer in straight espresso! It's SOOOO different than just using marshmallow syrup. Pay attention to the way the flavor changes after taking a sip, I've never had an espresso whose flavor goes thru so many transitions after it enters your mouth... (You can find the liquer at Total Wine) ✨
  • I’ve had a matcha and peppermint latte once, and it was surprisingly nice. The peppermint brightened the grassy notes from the matcha, and the matcha mellowed out the peppermint. It was around Christmas and it was called a Grinch tea latte, I mainly got it because of the name lol
  • Being Canadian, I work at a Tim Horton's (bc of course). There's the "Gretzky" aka the 9 sugars, 9 cream. But I've had people order 12/12s with a straight face and those are the people that scare me more than the people adding weird flavours to their coffees
  • @wmyers560
    I like doing a lot of "dirty" drinks with that added shot of espresso. It'll mix into just about anything. My favorite during summer is a Dirty Lemonade.
  • @AoiRyuko
    I like putting cayenne in my hot chocolate, so I’m definitely going to have to experiment with the chocolate+matcha+jalapeño combo.
  • @steveo107
    When we were in Geneva, we stumbled upon a coffee company whose specialty was 50/50 cold brew and ginger beer. It was delicious. Add that to your list!
  • I often make my coffee with a little molasses in place of any other sweeteners and a bit of half and half. It adds a malty-ish flavor to the coffee without being overly sweet. I discovered this combination years ago when my Dad brought me a cup of coffee and my migraine-addled self was convinced that he had added molasses to my coffee when he hadn't and afterwards I couldn't stop thinking about the combination, so I eventually tried it. It turned out to be pretty good and is still one of my favorites.
