    Steamed milk is plenty thick, and also adds sweetness! Then add more sugar if you feel you need it. Much better for your body!

    I feel like when you get into creamer territory, people aren’t drinking coffee because they like it, but because they just want a sugar and carb hit and coffee is a socially acceptable way to do so.

    EDIT: finally watched, and not surprised the most mentioned words are ‘artificial’ and ‘synthetic’ haha.

      Most people can’t afford a steamer. I’d still rather have plain milk and sugar

        I’m thinking for espresso-based drinks. For normal filter or (hopefully not) instant, sure, milk and sugar if you need it. There are some super cheap steamer/frothers on amazon too though!
