If I ask for a latte, and you give me a coffee with milk, I’m gonna be upset. There’s a big difference between steamed milk and just milk.

    I ordered an almond joy latte and went back in asking for another drink cause it was horrible.

    Turns out it was a coffee not a drink. I hadn't had coffee in so long I couldn't identify the lack of steamed milk. 🫤

    I did get it remade as a latte and it was amazing.

    You do know that when you steam milk it changes the consistency, right? It’s like the difference between a coke and a completely flat coke.

    Isn't a latte non-steamed though? I thought a cappuccino had the frothed milk in it.

    "Latte" is milk, "Caffè latte" is coffee with milk

    In Italy, sure, but the sign looks to be from an American coffee shop, so “latte” doesn’t mean just milk in this context.
