I know it is popular in LA, but having lived in other cities for a while, I find that very few baristas know what it is, and a small handful know the drink as a hammerhead. (i.e. Me: "it's a coffee with an add shot" Barista: "Oh you mean a hammerhead") What's the deal?<BR/><BR/>For those who don't know-- Red eye= coffee+add shot, black eye=coffee+two shots, hammerhead (i'm told)= coffee+two shots.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23451718.post-1161554283179764722006-10-22T14:58:00.000-07:002006-10-22T14:58:00.000-07:00lmao!

I thought I was being a pain in the ass whenever I ordered my fraps double blended (a few times at my fav bux I got a frap that had ice chunks big enough to clog up the straw repeatedly, which really ruined the experience). But 7 second blending, now THAT is being a pain in the ass HAH. That makes me feel much better :)<BR/><BR/>I got ill just reading that last drink.

I really like the Baristas at our local [in grocery store] bux - they are very nice when they make the kids fruit drinks - so I haven't attempted it - and honestly after reading this y'all take enough abuse for me to even attempt it for a laugh....<BR/><BR/>Perhaps after I get to know them better I will just do it to tease them.... ;)<BR/><BR/>And the smug barista from the other store? - I would've handed him the cup and the pen and say "Here, could you mark it yourself - you speak too fast for poor lil' ol me." What a putz.<BR/><BR/>Have a great weekend!SkippyMomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09479661523059481730noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23451718.post-1161431242671568952006-10-21T04:47:00.000-07:002006-10-21T04:47:00.000-07:00There is a radio show I listen to sometimes on my ...There is a radio show I listen to sometimes on my way in to work.
