I’m a coffee snob and I would drink ditch water before Starbucks over-roasted sad quality beans.

I generally stick to Camerons light roasted decaf beans and make my coffee via pour-over ritual.

If I’m going to a drive through, it will be Black Rock or Human Bean.

Gradually pour brewed coffee into mug, stir constantly. Pour in steamed milk; top mocha latte w/ whipped cream and chocolate syrup drizzle, or sprinkle on cocoa powder.

You can use any type of espresso, you don’t need an espresso machine.

I find Blackrock overrated (as is Dutch Bros). Scooby’s is a bit better. Local roasters are best, but they often don’t have a drive through
