Dear customers -
The beverage is known as a "caramel macchiato". It is not a "caramel match-iato", a "caramel Macchio", nor a "caramel machismo". You've been ordering the same drink for ten years now, and you've heard us properly pronounce it for ten years. I'm not sure it's possible to be that oblivious. Calling it a "caramel mariachi", a "caramel Maui Wowie", or a "caramel mecca-lecca-hi-mecca-hiney-ho" - we don't care what you think, it's not cute. You sound like a blithering idiot.
Signed,
Your disgruntled barista.
P.S. - While we're at it, it's a "chai tea latte"...not a "tai chi latte".
See Also: Espresso has 3S's in it. Last I checked there was no 'X' present anywhere in the word. Customers: Please be advised.
