Espresso Cherry Popped
Jul 15, 2019, 11:06 AM

Yesterday after drinking all day at the pool and lake, I was maxed out. So I drank a ton of water, then the kids showed up for dinner about 630. I was basically sober by this point, but exhausted. I knew something had to be done. So quickly head out on my bike to the coffee shop and got for the very first time, an espresso shot. I am a caffeine fanatic and this was quickest and only option.
It was GOOOOOOOD. It was an espresso nutella. Mix that bad boy up and the taste was really good and the caffeine kick was absolutely amazing. Still went to bed at 9:30pm. Woke up feeling like a champ. I might be hooked.

Cost is low and you don't need to nurse a drink for long. I'm not a daily coffee drinker, but when I do, its usually a double espresso shot, sometimes hot sometimes over ice.

That would be as follows:
Maker's Mark Mahnattan (straight up)
Appetizer can vary (prefer shrimp cocktail or raw oysters on the half shell)
20-24oz bone in ribeye (cooked medium rare)
Glass of wine (Usually a cab, Tuscan, or chianti)
20 year Tawny port with a cheesecake for dessert. (Raspberry glaze and NY Style)
Double espresso (PLAIN) always at the end.

They have to catch you first, and so far they haven't even found the bodies.

Espresso is my 'need this quick and now' coffee.
Got a nespresso thingamajig at home...we go thru the coffee coffee pods real quick, and always have a ton of espresso pods lingering for a while
Might try this intermittent fasting thing soon, in which case I'll be partaking in more of the espressos
