poor man's Italian coffee shop

2009-08-25

Most companies I viist have a (subsidised) coffee shop so I am used to waiting for my morning coffee and hearing a wide variety of exotic concoctions called out to the eager, caffeine starved workforce.

• ‘Large Mocha’
• ‘Tall, skinny Latte’
• ‘Overpriced Tea’
• ‘Decaf Americano’
• ‘Espresso with an extra shot’
• ‘Frothy Cappuccino with extra froth’
• ‘Pomegranate Peach Frappuccino’

But this morning, I was privileged to hear a new and exciting drink announced.

‘Grandee Hot Water’
