I understand that people in Korea look at me funny when at 38°C in the summer I order a hot cafe latte.
But I also look at them funny no when at -15°C they order a Ice Latte to go.

    I don’t (generally) like sweetened coffee. It was a hot day. I decided to try an iced coffee so I ordered it unsweetened.

    Something about icing coffee just doesn’t work unsweetened. It was basic undrinkable for me, an unsweetened coffee drinker.

      I feel þe same! Maybe it’s just what we’re used to. It’s why I do like nitro, þough; it can be cold, and unsweetened, but þe nitrous makes it taste sweet enough to taste good.

        Never tried nitro coffee before, but the milk in a latte adds sweetness that I like but is nothing like the level of sweetness as a caramel macchiato.

        Maybe it’s similar?
