Why brewed coffee beats espresso
A cup of brewed coffee is all coffee; a latte is one or two shots topped with milk. That is why a Tall Pike Place (235 mg) has three times the caffeine of a Tall latte (75 mg) at $1.95 less. If you want espresso drinks with more kick, the shaken espressos and Flat White use more shots per size.
