After taking the last sip of coffee in my cup, I rushed to my room and opened my laptop. So, let's get started...
Americano, Sugarless Black Coffee, or Long Black
Can you guess what I choose when visiting cafe after coffee cafe? Yep! I'll prioritise the three types of coffee I mentioned in the sub-title. So, I did play it safe and chose coffee flavours that are familiar to my palate, especially in my stomach
At home, as I mentioned above, or in the previous prompt, I prefer pure coffee without anything added. Oh! To be more precise, just an ice cube.
Why not explore other flavours?
If you're wondering, the answer is because my tolerance for lactose or dairy ingredients is very low. Even lower now. You don't know when it started? All you remember is that I wasn't used to processed foods with high dairy content since I was a kid. So, maybe that's had an effect until now. Besides, black coffee can really restore energy faster than milk with a lot of additives, according to my body.
For example, a while ago when my friend and I went to Blok M and had coffee at Join Kopi in South Jakarta, I also ordered their original menu which is black coffee. Even though there are many more tantalising coffee menus but, for the sake of safety and comfort in this hang out session, I chose black coffee instead. My friend also indirectly became interested in the menu I ordered, only, I ordered cold coffee, and my friend ordered hot coffee.
Have I never had coffee with other ingredients added: milk, whipped cream, palm sugar, etc?
Of course I have. Every now and then I also really miss having coffee with other ingredients added. Sometimes I order a latte. However, the thing is... when I order a latte, like a matcha latte, or something like that, I have to be self-aware that for the next few hours, my stomach will feel uncomfortable. Sometimes the effect is even more immediate than the next few hours. If that's the case, I always have stomach medicine on hand that I take at least three hours after drinking coffee.
Although I sometimes envy my friends for changing enu and tasting new variants that keep evolving, I still have to know my limits. After all, pait coffee is still the best.
So, that's my story about #tcsp this week. Hope you enjoyed reading my prompt... see you in the next post.
