Reminds me of that olive oil coffee Starbucks was selling that caused people to shit their pants.
I see people add milk, I see people add cream - is butter that different?
I used to do this because it was supposedly better than sugary creamers. You’re supposed to use a little blender to whip it up though, then it actually tastes super good.
I have tried this out because I got a bit obsessed with learning how to make every coffee drink during the pandemic. The way I did it was a double shot of espresso, a decently sized pat of good quality unsalted butter, and a little bit of hot water. The reasoning was that the butter would accentuate the naturally occurring oils of the espresso and lead to a richer crema on the resulting americano which was true. I thought it was actually pretty good that way, but I also love coffee in any form. It also wasn’t something I’d go out of my way to drink again. I also imagine this would do some bad things to your intestines if you drank this every day. If you want a delicious buttery coffee, a good quality whole fat milk is a much better option. As for health claims, I think it’s kind of insane that anyone says drinking literal butter could possibly be good for you, and even more insane that people believe it. It feels like an over-reaction to anti-fat propaganda from the sugar lobby where we went from “Maybe eating some fat in your diet isn’t a bad thing” to “YOU MUST EAT AS MUCH FAT AND OIL AS HUMANLY POSSIBLE.”

Bullet(proof) coffee is over a decade old already
Wow, I’ll try that tomorrow
My arthritis got fucked watching this video
I enjoy a buttery coffee on a blue moon. Not for health reasons. I just like it. What’s the arthritis risk though?
Edit: Google told me apparently some people’s arthritis is worsened by saturated fat. TDIL
Animal fat in general is a bad thing for clogged veins, this is also why fastfood and such moved to plant based oils
I think the part where the coffee is ice cold and doesn’t melt butter is probably where the problems started, butter neither made it better or worse at that point
keto
I completely agree, but there’s an exception: weed butter.
Tried this. It tasted god-awful. Personally, I swear by orange juice in my coffee.
Chocomel here
Amateur move, I just throw my whole breakfast in my coffee.
I got this pic of you in my head and giggled.
I wish I could show you the weird shit ive seen my dad try with his coffee, but I think overall the best thing Ive seen is scrambled eggs in black coffee. Is it insane? Yes. Did it taste like shit? Also yes.
I don’t know if you are joking but fresh orange juice, strong cold brew, and fizzy water is really good. I thought it would be awful but it’s delicious.
Ooh, I will have to try that.
LPT: add a lemon peel and honey to any coffee incl instant and it will taste gourmet. Add condensed milk if you’re feeling fancy. This is what I do for fieldwork coffee. I learned this off a good Brazilian friend, never went back. I always do at least the peel now, it neutralises the acids.
Ah yes the keto diet.
People are not getting vaccinated because of one simple reason, they are fucking idiots!
Adding butter to ramen is amazing
Okay but the last time I checked that wasn’t the type of coffee. 🫤
Pro-tip: replace the water in your instant ramen with coffee to make it taste like shit.
Just giving butter related tips
Lather yourself with it and sun bathe on your roof
