Latte art is all the rage for social media, but do people order them for the taste or just the clout? At home I find steaming milk annoying and then it just feels like I’m sitting down to a glass of hot milk when I’m finally done. What are other people’s thoughts? Do you like milk drinks? Do you make them at home?

    Hubs always gets an americano with a splash of oat milk when we’re out, or he pours some into a mug of drip at home. He likes the taste better.

    Sometimes, people are just wrong!

      Lol. I’ve never been a huge fan of the taste of milk or it’s alternatives straight. But I like the taste of coffee. I keep trying the combo because I think there must be something there that people like. But I guess it’s not for me.

        try nitro cold brew, it’s the creamy texture without the taste. if I could have that in a hot coffee I’d never touch dairy again, I don’t dislike milk just the dairy industry in general.

          Do you have any recommendations brands of nitro cold brew? I think I’ve seen the Starbucks canned one, but I don’t like supporting them.

            I would suggest finding a cafe with it on tap instead of out of a can.

            I’ve always made my own, it’s a fairly low investment for the maker and nitrogen canisters.
