I've had espressos in Europe...they were OK (I guess)......but I like a large cup of straight, black, unsweetened coffee. And I certainly wouldn't pay `$8.50 Canadian for either.

Yeah, that's what I don't like about those coffee drinks. Not enough coffee. I take mine with a dash of half/half but I'd rather go black than milky.

Is that metal lined? I used to take my coffee to work with me and drink it as I drove, when I did a commute for a year. But I've tried to bring coffee to work to keep in the car and drink at lunch, but it just gets cold and metalic tasting. Seems OK if you drink it within an hour but when it sits, don't keep so well.

It's double wall. Hot for 12 hours, cold 24. But I've had it go a bit longer. But like the item below, I have to pour hot water in it to "Prep" it. This way it stays hot for quite awhile.

Personally, Mainstay insulated food jar is a stunning example of a great product. I would have soup mixed with rice, pack it in. 10 hours later, have lunch at work and it's still hot.
 
I only buy chai latte from Starbuck's. Their coffees are too strong for my delicate constitution :giggle:

A&W coffee is surprisingly good. And it's cheap.

Just to point out to our American friends........A&W in Canada is a much different and seperate company from the A&W in the USA. In the 1970's the franchise owners and the employees banded together and bought the Canadian company from the American owners. JimB.
 
About 10 years ago we opened a little coffee shop in Central Florida, and served only fair trade, organic coffees. We closed after 2 years because of health issues, and I forget the exact prices, but I think a regular sized coffee was $1.95 and a small (one shot) latte was $2.95. Extra shot was $1, soy or almond milk was extra (don't know who much) and flavors were maybe 75 cents.

We also sold pastries and bagged coffee and tshirts and and and....

I worked with a guy in Riyadh who was a stakeholder in his BIL's donut shop, (in Dallas IIRC), he said they make so much money on the coffee that they could give the donuts away for nothing..............although they didn't.

A long time ago, when I worked for Odeon Canada as an assistant manger, I learned that the biggest profit margin was the popcorn. JimB.
