The charming Maria met me for coffee this morning at Blue Bottle, coffee mecca of the Ferry Building. Since it was warm, I was thinking iced latte. But luckily the waiter-dude helpfully steered me to the New Orleans iced coffee. I'm not exactly sure of the magical overnight steeping process, with chicory and a bit of organic brown sugar, but when combined with ice and milk it is truly an elixir of the gods. Said dude warned me it was very caffeinated...as if that would deter me! No, man, bring it on.
Side note: two women got in line behind me, and when one left to visit the restroom, she gave the other her order: nonfat iced white mocha. Oh, honey, let me point you toward the Starbucks...
