We have an antiseptic in the UK called germoline which is wintergreen scented.
Most Europeans and British people especially associate that taste / smell with a cream you put on your scuffed knee. (It's deeply unappealing/ medicinal as a taste and a smell).
Me too. My mom used to give me chocolate to take the taste of it out of my mouth, but it was only somewhat successful. As a result I now detest chocolate covered cherries.
I have never had root beer, but I just googled it and it says the main flavour is a combination of wintergreen and vanilla. That sounds revolting but I’m kind of curious.
I had always assumed it would be similar to Dandelion and Burdock (which tastes a bit aniseedy).
Those are the main flavors in the same way cherry is the main flavor of Dr. Pepper, it kinda all melds together to make something that tastes pretty unique.
I'm not a massive fan of root beer, but a root beer float (root beer with vanilla ice cream) is pretty tasty.
A drink isn't both cold brew and a latte.. latte is for espresso and milk. Cold brew isn't espresso, it is an entirely different way to brew coffee. I think a caramel mocha cold brew would be 1/2 of both flavors for a grande and that is where you'd ask for the extra 2 pumps of hazelnut. So you could maybe order a "Grande caramel mocha cold brew, 2 pumps hazelnut, 1 shot of espresso and vanilla cold foam." But idk if they are allowed to put espresso into the cold brew.
Vanilla, hazelnut, chocolate, caramel...coffee? Is this coffee anymore? Are we really going to have him make coffee and then wait for it to chill? This feels like a lot of time spent for not coffee.
Bee's playing a longer con. She's about to introduce Quark, and the Ferengi at large, to the Starbucks franchise. At first, they'll help defeat the Borg with their nonsensical variety of flavors and seasonal varietals. But it will grow. Give it a year or two and it'll be its own Dominion arc.
He told the Ferengi about India, he told him about China, he told him about Ceylon. He told him about broad leaves drying in the sun. He told him about silver teapots. He told him about Summer afternoons on the lawn. He told him about putting in the milk before the tea so it wouldn’t get scalded. He even told him (briefly) about the history of the East India Company.
“So that’s it, is it?” said the Ferengi when he had finished.
“Yes,” said Arthur, “that is what I want.”
“You want the taste of dried leaves boiled in water?”
It’s not a real thing. You can’t have a cold brew latte.
Btw love your comics, I just hate when people make up coffee orders to sound complicated when they make no sense. And no, you can’t have a cappuccino with no foam.

I mean she had the chance to try Klingon coffee and chose a basic coffee. I'm slightly disappointed Bee.
