00:00 Hello there
01:02 The Orange “Creamsicle”
05:57 Marshmallow Mess
08:45 Concerningly Spicy Matcha
13:35 The Swamp
16:05 no more oj please
18:25 Oh, thank god
The Matcha+Chocolate+Jalapeno drink should be called the Shreckuccino
The Shrecchiato
nothing, no matter its crimes, should be called the shreckuccino
Just like an Ogre, that drink has many layers...😁
I hate this. But i love it.
@@juanjuri6127 EVERYTHING SHOULD BE CALLED THE SHREKUCCINO
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.
When I worked there, I also got this order! It was like an hour before close. I was super confused but made it for them anyway
@@sulfur9915 LMAO no fucking way. That's amazing. We must try it.
@@radicalrobynette7138 I am kinda curious now
Ok I actually did laugh out loud at this, so thank you for taking me back to 2004 internet feels.
@@youtubename7819 ur welcome lol
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!
Yes. I love Sawada Coffee. I prefer their other signature drink, the black camo latte, which has hojicha (roasted green tea). Hojicha and espresso have similar flavor profiles and work really well together kinda like chocolate and coffee. Way better than matcha and espresso. I have a theory that dirty matcha lattes are only more common because matcha has more name brand recognition.
When I was in Tokyo in 2019 I was in a coffee shop that had military lattes and military donuts! I simply have no idea what the shop was called but interesting the trend is now here in the US! It was somewhere near Harajuku.
Edit: It was Streamer Coffee and indeed owned by Hiroshi Sawada!
ive been making a machoccy for a couple years coz i just made it at my job once and i felt like mixing flavours... didnt know it was an actual thing
Yo thank you I love in Chi-town and this is on the coffee shop hit list!
Nope. It was invented in the 90s in England. I personally have been drinking dirty chai long before 2015.
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.
It’s actually kind of common to add a squeeze of lemon to chai, here in India. I wouldn’t have it with milk tho
@@Smoothbrainsverified thankfully the chai base at starbucks is not milk-based and is just the tea and spices
@@cjpierrot It's actually on the menu in the app now (as honey citrus mint tea)
@@cjpierrot yeah they sell a version of that now! It’s the honey citrus mint. I hate making them lol. The drink I’m talking about is the concentrate though
O you know what that actually sounds 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
I must try this!!!
do you use fresh or dried rose petals? this sounds amazing
@@impossiblegrl3698 dried, and it really is amazing ^^
@@sassycow8401 thanks!
Use food grade flowers
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 ;)
I use cayenne in my lemon pie :) so good paired with sweet things :)
Yuuuuuum
ooh, that sounds lovely though
Sounds good, so many interesting ideas in this feed
ooo makes me think of a mexican hot chocolate!
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.
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 you discover hot chocolate its gonna change your life
@@wisdomsson4078 nah, as someone who rarely sweetens my coffee I’d willingly try just marshmallow and coffee, maybe with milk, but don’t actually enjoy the sweetness of cocoa!
I'd also think it might be better with marshmallow fluff rather than actual marshmallows. That might get you closer to the whipped cream thing
@@Maguire708Julie cocoa isnt sweet, buy some baking cocoa and mix one teaspoon per mug of milk and see what the flavour profile is like, it's very bitter and dark. Commercial hot chocolate blends are 1:4 or 1:5 cocoa to sugar, the cocoa is not sweet.
There's a very bitter and dark drink that the Mayans drank also that you can look up, if milky cocoa isnt what your interested in.
Try the brand smashmollow, they make a marshmallow that I feel is made for beverages over roasting them
Not a particularly weird combo, but a mocha with orange syrup (not juice). Very nice twist on a standard mocha.
I've also had this beverage. It was a seasonal beverage at a coffee shop I used to visit
If you enjoy oranges as a fruit, make candied orange peels, add some orange juice to the leftover syrup, and save it in the fridge. Orange syrup and candied orange peels, so nothing goes to waste!
oh that does sound really good, i want to try it now :0
Oh that sounds delicious! like a liquid Terry’s Chocolate Orange 😮
That sounds lovely!
I had a raspberry white chocolate latte before. The fruity flavor really complemented it!
I can totally imagine the chocolate orange flavor. It reminds me of the seasonal chocolate orange candy at the store
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)
Raspberry and coffee is fab
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
Woah! What volume of coffee are they adding that to? :O is that to a flat black or what? God thats intense.
That's practically a coffee-flavored milk tea at that point
@@liadhainsmith It's usually an XL (20fl ounces / 591ml) but the amount of coffee in that barely makes the entire cup beige. I've had customers order that and complain that it's cold like??? Yeah of course it is bud, it's 99% cream at this point !
@@cookiemonster59263 woah 591ml :O thats mad, 9 sugars is still intense for that!
Oh god yeah, my partner has only in the last 2 years become a tea fiend like I am, but he has his super milky, moans it's cold 🙃 so now I microwave it afters it brewed before the milk to stop him haha.
Bless you, the service industry sucks
@@cookiemonster59263 You don't heat the cream up? That's a bit surprising, could as well sell it iced at that point (may actually be better that way). I have to say though 12 sugar on top of the cream, boy better skip the next meal lol.
I love how the chapters go from nicely named and organized to a chaotic not even given a properly named title lol
Thank you for this comment, i would have totally missed the titles otherwise 😂
ahahah I completely agree, was just thinking about this!
1/4 espresso (double shot), blueberry syrup, 1/4 heavy cream, 2/4 whole milk cold. Delicious festive drink
Screenshoting this, def gonna try, thank You 🦋
Heavy cream makes everything better
omg yes! a coffee shop that sadly closed recently had a drink called the sasquatch and it was basically this recipe. insanely delicious
@@Mizmatch89preach!
Hot or iced?
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
Someone ordered that from me yesterday! :)
I mean makes sense, some people like that Moroccan mint green tea
@@clarehidalgo good point. I think the specific match up just threw me off a bit
✨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 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.
I had this in colombia and it was amazing. I think they whisked the one I had because it was very foamy, so delicious
Yes!! I love doing this with some spicy ginger syrup and it’s so refreshing
I like putting cayenne in my hot chocolate, so I’m definitely going to have to experiment with the chocolate+matcha+jalapeño combo.
i definitely misread that as cyanide at first and was VERY concerned...
In a similar vein, I feel like what that really wanted was a powdered chile, not a fresh one. It just seems to fit better with what one would expect, texturally.
Spiced Hot Chocolate is wonderful. I add a little cinnamon and cayenne when I make chocolate moouse.
@Jared Van Wormer Cheyenne and cinnamon in hot chocolate is my go to too
you should try a mocha latte made with mexican Chocolate. if you REALLY want to get fancy with it. Make a Mocha Latte with Mexican Chocolate, and add a cup of coffee and some hand whipped whipped cream with Khalua in it. the cream should be whipped to the point it's very very thick almost like butter so that it lasts a long time in the drink, then finish it off with some very finely grated mexican chocolate on top.
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!
oh i am intrigued by this! is there anything in particular you’d recommend for trying to replicate this?
@@concessioncard I would just recommend 50/50 of good quality of each and hope for the best!
😮
do you still know the name of the place?? I'd absolutely LOVE to try that :))
@@bredsheeran2458 Green Wheel Coffee in Geneva!
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.
My grandpop liked molasses in his coffee too
LOL we do this all the time at the NYC coffee shop I work at 😂 We test customers strange orders and have learned how many syrups DO NOT taste good in matcha
Do you have any matcha and syrup combos that surprised you?
oh, let's add another one: banana hot chocolate w. espresso 🤤
add some milk to a pan, add a banana, puree until banana is completely "dissolved", heat it up on a stove, then add unsweetened cocoa powder (the baking stuff) and a double shot of espresso. ah and just don't ask how one comes up with these recipes they just happen to be lucky accidents 😅
Screenshotted this
Actually a recipe I would give a go
Imma screenshot this too for future experiment drink that I might binge drinking
Thank you love ♥
I once messed up my whipped cream for coffee. I was trying to make something more fluffy, but overmixied it instead. It was still fluffy and floaty, but the texture was more dense. This cream didn't mix in the coffee well, so i ate it with spoon. But i loved the combo! I named it "cloudy sky" because the cream was floating on top like some heavy clouds, which about to pour some rain.
It's a simple combo, but i had fun creating it🌸
you made butter and buttermilk
^ this. But butter in coffee is definitely a thing that people do and enjoy lol
Butter coffee is pretty good
I wonder if the texture of the apple cider latte could be improved by reducing the apple cider into something more like a syrup (it'd be easy to add spices to this too!) and steaming milk normally (so the way you'd make any other flavored latte, basically)?
I was thinking that too, I wonder if an apple butter would work
I thought it would be alcoholic
I suspect if you changed the ratio to be more apple cider then the texture would be. Egger. Similar to how she added just a little milk to the orange juice one.
@@mushy470 in the US “cider” refers to unfiltered apple juice, often with spices added, rather than the alcoholic cider. we do also call the alcoholic drink “cider” but most people will default to assuming it’s not alcoholic unless otherwise specified, or the context makes it obvious.
@@blu4get that confused me a lot - thanks for clarifying. I hadn't even considered that this might not be alcoholic until I saw this comment!
I think that marshmallow fluff would work better instead of small marshmallow.
I was thinking the same thing, or homemade marshmallows. They melt much better.
@Evie that is brilliant idea homemade marshmallow. I was tempted to make it for Christmas😍
I tried something similar with homemade marshmallows in block form. It gets torched on top of the coffee.
@AjiApril Songs you can add marshmallow to coffee 😲😲😲😲❤️❤️❤️❤️
I have also fallen victim to the coffee and orange juice fever. I make mine with cold brew and sometimes a little bit of sweet cream.
My last coffee fixation was my "blueberry muffin" creation: a hot drink with oat milk & blueberry syrup.
My ultimate goal has been to make a coffee drink that's tastes like a lemon poppyseed muffin. But the syrup I tried it with didn't mix well even with milk alternatives.
Maybe treat it like an espresso lemonade to start
The zest will be less acidic but perhaps more effort to get enough of it to make a potent syrup. You'll probably want to use Meyer lemons for this as well. Maybe chia to sub in for that poppyseed crunch? I have no desire to make lemon coffee, but I hope you make your dream come true.
maybe make lemon grass sugar syrup instead of lemon syrup?
I feel like the spicy matcha chocolate thing would lend its self more to a darker chocolate flavour and maybe a dried, smoky chilli instead of jalapeño. What I’m saying is there’s definitely promise, especially (in my mind) with an old school almost South American approach to the flavours
Honestly, when I heard jalapeños + chocolate I immediately thought central america. That area loves their spicy chocolate.
we had a seasonal drink in the fall where we did an apple cider latte with 1/4 cider and 3/4 milk steamed together, espresso, orange syrup, and fall spices. it was amazing
As a barista of 7 years, one combination I used to really enjoy was having a Cortado with mint. On my breaks i used to make a cortado and drink it with a piece of Kendal mint cake. (or if you cant get it in the states, a dash of mint syrup works too.) You let the mint cake melt on your tongue and then have a sip of the drink. It was my daily drink.
I’m a big fan of combining white chocolate and Matcha like you said, but I really can’t imagine chocolate doing the same thing for me. I’ll have to try it though!
White hot chocolate with some matcha is a winter time favourite for me 🥰
Chocolate mint matcha is absolutely 10/10!
I don't think it's weird but baristas always seemed confused when I would get a hot matcha latte with hazelnut syrup, it's so nice! My favourite that I always make at home nowadays is an iced matcha latte with pumpkin spice syrup 🤤 (always with oat milk of course)
Apple cider always makes me do a duble take in videos like this.
Because to me, that is a clear alcoholic drink, often with some form of carbonation. Which would not pair well with milk at all. Coffee, I don't know tbh.
But with the american version, which to me would be unclarified juice, I can see it being an interesting combination.
I was confused too, here apple cider is a carbonated alcoholic drink but apparently in America it's just unclarified apple juice lol
American apple cider is apple juice mixed with spices. Think of your typical autumn spices (cinnamon and nutmeg mostly) it’s also generally pretty sweet and a little bit caramel-y. It’s often served hot with flavored vodka or other alcohols ☺️
One of my favourite drinks I've made is a Ras Malai Latte. It's a regular latte, but it's made with the liquid from ras malai thinned out with a bit of whole milk. Also works well as a Chai latte. If you haven't tried it, ras malai is a south asian dairy dessert that is sort of like a spongy cheese swimming in a bunch of sweet and aromatic cream and topped with some chopped/crushed nuts. The flavour I used was saffron, but it is also made with cardamom. You can find frozen trays of it in south asian grocery stores.
Oh my God, that sounds amazing. We went to a sushi restaurant and had a matcha tiramisu that reminded me of ras malai, and I was in heaven.
That sounds delicious! Next time my mom makes ras malai I'm gonna save some of the milk to try this out
I love cardamom, so I might like that.
I enjoy Morgan’s overall presence. Positive and knowledgable. This is my first stop in on this channel but I really enjoyed it. 😄

same, she was cracking me up with some of the responses too
One of my all time faves I created when I was a barista at SB: chai concentrate + lemonade + ice = yum. Another option is that plus a healthy splash of oat milk. Double yum! Just happened to be talking with our regional manager on his visit to the store and he said, go ahead and make one…I’ll try it. He took one sip and immediately gave the wait-a-minute-now eyebrow raise and nod. He said you might be onto something! He even asked for the rest of it in a to-go cup. 😊
Oh and yes, I keep the ingredients on hand to recreate and even add a pump or two of classic sometimes. Play around with it and your tastebuds.
I love love love a black and tonic with lemon! One can of tonic water, two shots of espresso, sweeten with honey if you prefer it sweet, and squeezed lemon over top. It has to be my favorite summer drink of all time.
I've also gently poured espresso over lemon, orange, or blood orange San Pellegrino sodas and they are equally lovely. Gentle being the keyword, as the crema of the espresso will foam up like crazy once it meets the cold carbonated drink. But if its poured just so, you get a delicious head to the top, not unlike a beer!
coffee with tonic so SO good,,, ppl look at me like I'm insane for it. If you have access to fresca soda, try it with coffee! Or soda water and pomegranate syrup!
Exchange the lemon for a little bit of ginger syrup, or vanilla syrup
a little bit different, equally as good
One of my favorite drinks in a Czech café was a lavender latte. A few drops of essential lavender oil in the cup before constructing the latte, then topped with whipped cream and lavender sugar (lavender flowers and sugar blitzed up). So good if you like floral flavors. If not it will taste like laundry detergent to you 😅
I would switch out lavender essential oil for a housemade lavender syrup. We made that drink all the time at my old café i worked at.
There's a lavender Earl Grey tea that I really enjoy, made with lavender buds so no sugar
Are you sure it was actual essential oil? Because that is not something you are supposed to eat. There are of course food safe aromatic oils but please never ingest essential oils.
@@Shirumoon some essential oils are okay to eat in very small quantities (we're talking 1-3 drops here). Things like vanilla, rose, rosemary essential oil. Of course then you need to trust the producer to actually deliver food safe product. I never made this coffee though, I just watched closely how they made it, because I liked it so much
We have jasmine latte in a cafe here but I haven't tried it yet.
The last drink, and the mention of Chai reminds me of a drink a coffee shop had called “Chaider” not sure if it was just Chai and apple cider, or if it was more of a latte-type drink with steamed milk, but it was always my favorite to get!
I’ve made my own cider/chai combo (not sure I’ve ever done it with milk) and it’s so tasty!
I work at a coffee shop in Massachusetts that had a 'chai-der' 2 winters ago and it was sooooo good
This has me VERY intrigued to experiment with the marshmallow idea.
I plan to grab a culinary torch and toast the marshmallows until lightly golden, then place in the cup and pour the espresso over them.
My hope is that the toasting starts the melting process and the Maillard reaction adds some complexity to the beverage.
I’m not sure about espresso and matcha but I know that Vietnamese coffee (sweetened with condensed milk) and matcha has been popular in the Vietnamese coffee scene
I tried the orange coffee a few weeks ago because of this video and now i cannot go in a day without it 😂 thank you Morgan for the discovery!
Years and years back, I dated someone who really liked turmeric chai. But she couldn't get chai at most shops at the time, so she ordered a turmeric latte. Her local NYC coffee shop was happy to do it for her. But one time she tried ordering a turmeric latte from my local coffee shop. But I don't live in NYC, and this place only made basic coffee and tea drinks. I usually just get a double latte from there. So, being extra, she ordered a regular latte, and friggin'... Just squirted a packet of yellow mustard in there. MUSTARD. SHE SEEMED TO ENJOY IT.
I love horchata latte sometimes with a shot of hazelnut...idk if that's weird but it's a really refreshing twist on the regular latte
The other day I made myself a snickers inspired iced latte. I used one tsp of peanut butter, a pump of caramel syrup, chocolate sauce and 2 shots of espresso as the base. Then I added the milk, topped it with whipped cream and drizzled it with cinnamon. It was so so good! Tasted just like the candy!
I didn't do it this year but previous years I've made a really lovely syrup just by reducing apple cider to 50% of its original volume. I would for sure try that in a latte. You could add whole spices during the reduction.
A 20 minute Morgan video?! I can’t wait to try some of these
Hot Chocolate + chili is definitely a thing. Very traditional, if I remember correctly. I've had hot chili fudge as well.
Okay but actually try this ~ double shot espresso mixed w a tablespoon of creamy jif peanut butter, add steamed whole milk, stir in a tablespoon of maple syrup. It’s amazing
Cider and coffee is delicious! You're definitely right about the spices too. What's really good is making boiled cider (basically reduce a gallon of cider down to a thick syrup. I believe it was King Arthur Flour that had a great recipe/method for it) with spices added and adding that to coffee with milk. It's a more intense cider flavor and really good.
Thanks for moving your clock by the way!! It helped my wife and I both. Between that and the extra lighting it was really helpful for focus! :) Very much appreciated.
I recently discovered your channel and I don't think I've ever heard someone talk about coffee nuances in such an inviting and approachable way as you! I don't tolerate caffeine really well but I appreciate a Good Coffee (before lunch lol otherwise no sleep) and I also experiment with herbal bitters, mocktails etc so I love video's like this!
I found your channel recently and I haven't seen many videos of you, but I love your way of describing tastes and also your way of objectively enjoying things. Like there are sooo many people not liking bitter drinks and drinking everything way too sweet or the other way around. I like how you enjoy both. thanks for this cozy environment!
I've been loving your content lately! Love the syrup recipes and making new drinks~
I can't wait to try these at home!
You are one of my major comfort channels, and I just wanted to let you know how much I appreciate your videos.
Also, the first drink reminds me of Orange Joe from OMORI!
something i had never seen on a cafe menu before but was immedietky intrigued by was iced black tea with cloudy apple juice. it was really nice tho! will definitely make that myself at home in the summer
At the coffee shop I work at we have a regular named Ann. She’s a snowbird who only shows up in the summer but when she’s in town she’s a regular to the point that she has her own drink option in the register: Ann’s Drink. Ann’s Drink is iced earl gray tea, honey, one shot of espresso, and I think sugar free vanilla syrup. I think about Ann a lot
Matcha works well with coconut milk😋
The Dirty Matcha latte is actually something I really like and started making for myself a few months ago with no outside influence, I just wanted to know what what happen if I did it. Now I make it for myself fairly often. It's become kind of a comfort drink for me, honestly. I like to add honey and white chocolate sauce because you're right, there's not very much going on by itself but once you add a little sweetener it's really good.
When in Peru I had iced black coffee with fresh orange juice quite often. First it sounded disgusting but from the first sip on I was in love. Especially on a hot day this is SO good. So I’ll definitely try your version with the vanilla Sirup. That sounds amazing ❤
"adding the addition of additional spices" may be my new favorite unnecessarily roundabout way of saying "adding" :P
I don't have an answer on the dirty matcha rising but I can speculate that it might have been the popularity of the dirty chai (which was really popular awhile ago) and then matcha rose in popularity over chai and people just combined them. Like they were already putting espresso in tea why not in the "new" tea.
The strangest thing that I’ve ordered was a red velvet latte. And it was absolutely delicious. It was so chocolatey and it taste just like red velvet cake.
After stumbling upon your channel all of sudden, I tried the combination of orange juice + espresso and served it cold. It tasted wonderful! Thank you for showing it's actually great!
I had a customer one time order a vanilla bean cream frap (with oat milk, but that's optional) with added maple spice syrup (from Monin, 3 pumps worth). I didn't think it would taste good until I tried some of what was left over and it turns out it was fantastic. They were certainly on to something!
I had something very similar to the dirty matcha, except it was a double shot of espresso with milk tea instead, which pushed it a bit to the sweeter side of things. I didn't expect the two flavours to work together as well as they did, but it was a surprisingly pleasant drink.
a matcha latte with espresso is called "shot green tea latte" in cafes in South Korea, Hong Kong, and other cafes in Asia, so it's been pretty popular over there for a while. As for the dark chocolate and matcha, I think that the earthiness of the green tea brings out the earthiness of the dark chocolate really well, personally. I'm a fan of both of those (minus the jalapeno)
Not a coffee drink, but an adjacent drink that I have absolutely love.
Red bean Boba Tea. So it consists of red bean paste, mixed with a matcha latte, with honey boba pearls, and topped with a decently thick layer of sweet cream on top, sprinkled with the smallest pinch of salt for flavor enhancement.
It's earthy, sweet, and absolutely delicious~!
I’ve had a red bean matcha latte and it’s amazing!
i'd love to see a hundred more of this please!
Like I've heard of a Mayan Hot Chocolate, i forget what it's spiced with but it's more akin to like a cinnamony clovey Cayenne spice within a dark/milk hot chocolate drink. It's REALLY good, not sure if I've had it with coffee but it likely would make for a good mocha
i honestly love your channel so much, so thanks for making my day a bit better :)
Had a customer who wanted peach syrup, espresso, and almond milk as a hot latte. But we only had peach, pear, apricot smoothie mix, so he asked for it as a smoothie. He left and I had to try it… It polarised our cafe, people either loved it or spat it out.
I actually went grocery shopping just to buy the ingredients for the vanilla, orange juice and milk combo and I LOVED it! I would never have thought to put those together myself
Today’s dare: Espresso with strawberry preserves and dill pickle juice
??
Is it good lol
@@zechozenvan, my job is to present the dare… 😂
That sounds like it would have an upchuck factor 🤢
@@ykhemani😂
The popularity of espresso matcha might have come from Ten Thousand Coffee which is a fairly small chain but in a lot of major cities, but I’m not totally sure. I just know they’ve had espresso matcha on their menu for years.
espresso+orange juice also taste great with vanilla ice cream instead of milk. I really like to wait for the scoop of ice cream to slowly melt into the drink!
My favorite go-to order for a local place has been the dirty matcha you made, but adding a little bit of vanilla syrup to it. Like you said, a little bit of sweetness really rounds out the drink; and the added vanilla adds a nice subtlety!
Matcha and espresso: there is a real amazing american-undiscovered thing. I've been wanting to share this gem with you ,Morgan, because it was the best drink I've ever had and will probably never have again. Ages ago, while I visited Osaka Japan with friends we had a once in a lifetime dinner at a nondescript but high end restaurant. Our host family knew the chef and he personally made the multi-course meal himself for just for the six of us. He ended the meal by serving a black coffee,or maybe more likely espresso shot, that was topped with matcha foam. You must try this, it was a 12 out of 10. No joke. Simply devine. I wish I knew what kind of matcha or coffee was used....
As someone who coincidentally had a spicy (guajillo chili, which is smokier!) hot cocoa matcha today- gotta say I'd do it again. I think the dried pepper flavor is really nice, goes well with the chocolate and the bitterness of the matcha. Totally not for everyone, though! Also, take this with a grain of salt- I've asked for a drink that I didn't find all that weird that was declined for "sounding gross." Thanks for this video! :)
You are so well spoken, it's very satisfactory to my ears
this is the first video im watching from your youtube channel (although i have been following your on tt for a while) and your voice is exactly how i imagined it)) love the video!!
espresso + orange juice + vanilla syrup is a common combination at least in eastern europe, it's called bumble 😌 usually served with ice and is amazing for summer. in winter juice could be treated as milk for cappuccino (ends up hot and with a foam) + mulled wine spices are added - hot bumble is also fantastic!
My two weird personal favorites (as someone who was a barista and could fuck around with coffee a lot) Iced long back on Tonic Water, and iced long black with like juice. Both very refreshing!
I love the play-by-play commentary of this. The 'That seems like the right move here' stuff they say. Big fan
This was a fun idea. I'm glad I stumble across the video.
I didn't order this but I've made it at home several times:
Get a percolator/French press and add the regular amount of coffee that you use to make coffee for the full thing. Then add the regular amount of rooibos tea that you'd use to fill up the entire thing. Let it steep to your preferred strength and enjoy. I would be more specific, but I feel like it's always best to follow your own preferences with this kind of stuff.
I generally use aroma red or mocca coffee but other people might like other coffees and in a coffee place they use espresso so it's just a bit of trial and error.
There is one I like too. London Fog Latte with an extra shot Espresso. It’s normally sweetened with vanilla syrup. The Earl Grey for the London Fog is best when it’s a fragrant tea with a good amount of bergamot aroma.
Love this video, it’s so fun seeing these interesting combinations. An old colleague and friend of mine used to love cola with espresso in it and I never understood it. But I don’t know if it’s particularly unusual in the barista world.
If you try it be careful cuz the espresso will make the cola fizz and overflow if you pour too quickly 🫠

I don’t usually subscribe after only one video but this was so pleasant and sweet to watch, I can tell him gonna like this channel
My go to home coffee recipe is coffee made in my mocha pot, cooled down, with ice and fresca canned soda. literally divine. There's a shop near me that has really lovely pomegranate syrup so I order an italian soda with a shot of espresso and pomegranate or blood orange syrup. I've been getting this same drink for literal years and folks either love it or hate it :)
I have a couple of favorites, especially when I am sick. Depression meds don't mix well with cold meds, so these are my go to coffee recipes that help with feeling better while sick (I'm something of a foodie and love to cook):
-Base of decaf
Add in spice of choice:
Chinese 5 spice (mine has cinnamon, cloves, anise, black pepper, and fennel)
Or
Prince of Peace ginger honey crystals (if you can't get them, go with about 1 tablespoon honey, 1 tablespoon raw sugar, and 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger to make the equivalent of one packet. They're quite strong!)
Or
5 dashes each ground cloves and ground cardamom
Or
Sweeten by adding a cinnamon stick to your cup and letting it sit for a few minutes.
I'll admit, I was inspired to try matcha+chocolate because i love matcha and i love bitter hot chocolate (and i can't drink coffee). i made a matcha latte, added cocoa powder, and then mixed in some chili spice and sweetener. it tastes pretty good, though i think just hot chocolate or just matcha tastes equally good. just wanted to share my experiment!
I'm new to your channel and really enjoying it. Who would have thought that watching someone making and tasting coffee drinks would be so fascinating!

with the chai latte you made, this was something we did somewhat regularly at our stand in 2012 when i worked at tullys! we'd often make them blended to avoid the texture issue.
I love an iced matcha latte with hazelnut and shots of espresso. If i want more of a milk shake use heavy cream instead of regular milk when i blend it. But also a limeade with muddled strawberries/strawberry puree and matcha is delicious. It looks like sewer water but it is so refreshing. Especially in the summer.
I stopped by a great restaurant in Toronto this past winter and tried one of their coffee cocktails. Espresso, pineapple juice, and elderflower syrup. 12/10, I've been making this as my morning drink almost everyday since.
Sometimes I use whatever milk just because (cow, or nut milk) and in drinking my matcha like this as well!
This is such a nice and calming video, thanks :)
A café last year use to serve Elderflower tonic water, espresso, and lemon. It ended up being my favorite drink all summer. They don't serve it anymore though, instead this summer they are serving a Grapefruit Cold Brew Spritz (says it has a touch of vanilla bean in it). Haven't tried it yet.
Hello if you do this again the coffee I make at home is: Pour over coffee with .5oz of orgeat, .5oz vanilla, fill with latte foam from the foamer you recommended and sprinkle with fresh ground nutmeg. love your channel!! Also if you make a drink with marshmallows again I would highly recommend using homemade marshmallows! I got them as a gift from a friend last Christmas and they are melty-er than store-bought. they go great in warm drinks!
Once I ordered a matcha with mocha and the barista just looked at me like “what is this girl on?”, but I love it and is one of my go tos since trying a chocolate donut with matcha drizzle it is *chefs kiss*
recently on a whim I ordered an arnold palmer with oj instead of lemonade -- so just cold black tea and orange juice about 50/50. the cashier was skeptical, and so was I, but I was quite happy with it! milder and more refreshing than a regular arnold palmer, great for breakfast.
Living here in Brazil I have found that they make varieties of tonic water with coffee and I love them all. They have tonic water, ice, and espresso. Then some add mint and lime, others with honey and lemon, but my go to is just tonic cherry syrup. You should try it.
i tried a new combo today, not sure if it counts as weird but i haven't seen it advertised anywhere before. I got a half-caff dark chocolate mocha and asked them to add raspberry syrup. In my opinion it tastes like the truffles in valentine's day chocolate boxes
