Don't be surprised if your friends give you a hard time for that level of precision, though. If you ever feel insecure about how much milk to add, you could always try the Calvin Klein approach: He matched his ideal coffee to a Pantone color swatch, then kept it in his kitchen so his chef could get it to the right consistency every time, according to the New York Times. It's basically your moment of zen, but as you pour in creamer, it's easy to go overboard and wind up with coffee that's somewhere between beige and eggshell and tastes like milky disappointment laced with the bitter taste of wasted money. We get it, you got mesmerized by how half-and-half swirls into your iced coffee. The same goes for any flavor syrup-if you take a sip and it's too bitter for your liking, you can always ask the barista to add a pump of sweetener later. Not that there's anything wrong with that. Otherwise, you'll end up with a syrupy drink that's closer to chugging fudge sauce. Ordering an iced coffee with a couple pumps of mocha-and a glug of milk-is a cheaper way to get the flavor of a Caffè Mocha without the higher cost, but beware: If the barista asks whether you want it sweetened, decline, decline, decline.
