[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What do you mean by self defeating?
I stopped drinking coffee and occasionally make myself a chai latte or green tea with honey. It’s been 4 months now.
I don’t miss coffee.[/quote]
Off topic, but please explain to me what is chai latte? I mean it is just tea with milk, no? Chai is the word for tea in many countries, in my birth country too. Is it just English breakfast tea then?[/quote]

A chai latte in the US is usually black tea, spices, and steamed milk. You may also hear the term dirty chai which is a chai latte with a shot of espresso in it.[/quote]

Why did you omit a standard chai latte comes with tons of sugar in it? At least it does at every Starbucks to hipster independent coffee shop I've been to. 42g of sugar in Starbucks grande-sized chai latte. Chai latte is not a healthy alternative to quitting coffee, unless you load your morning coffee with tons of sugar.[/quote]

NP. Anyone reading these boards should understand that *every* Starbucks drink (except drip or Americano) is loaded to the hilt with sugar. [/quote]

My go to is a plain latte with almond milk. What could possibly be wrong with that?  (Every once in a while I’ll add one pump of vanilla, but even that isn’t outrageous. It’s about 20 calories. All sugar, but still… It’s the venti with 5-6 pumps that kills you). [/quote]
