My point is that it would be silly to judge someone for this, just like it's silly to judge someone for putting creamer in coffee.
Edit: also, what about drinks like mochas, cappuccinos, macchiatos, etc. which also have other ingredients mixed in? Generally it's still fine to call those forms of coffee, no?
Random side note: I've had chocolate-dipped espresso beans before and they're actually a pretty good snack. You just can't eat too many of them because of the caffeine content.
Yes, I guess I take the different perspective with that. I'm fine sticking with my own arbitary rule for what is coffee, and judging people (in a very mild and irrelevant way) for not liking "real" coffee. But I'm also totally fine with someone judging me for doing it wrong. Or putting cream in my carbonara or whatever. I don't think people judging each other and having arbitary standards is a bad thing, and I'm aldoy happy for people to disagree with that belief.
A cappachino is coffee and frothed milk, a mocha is coffee and chocolate and milk, etc. If you make something by mixing A + B + C then the result can't be C. Personally I like just coffee on its own, but I'm happy to make others sweet and milky coffee drinks if they desire them. They smell nice and look pretty!
Defintely agree about the beans.
