IIEM, a vanilla latte to go please!

IIEM? Hallooo? *IIEM's mind seems to presently be occupied by the previous order*

I know how to fix that...
*BANG*
ow. 14hours asleep really takes it out of you!
Sssssssssssssssssssssssssss.

*IIEM produces a perfect cup of tea, a vanilla latte and manages to clone a barrel of Dr. Pepper which also contains one 14 year old and his imaginary friend Dexter who are now floating around the outer regions of a large mountain in Scotland where some men are playing a game involving cards and for some strange reason eating eggs in a little crumby package*.

Has anyone ever felt theres a huge cover up conspiracy and something really big is happening but you don't know what it is?

I tend to think that there is terrible amount of people having all kind og conspiracy theories.

Eddie, if I may be so familiar, the name is indeed Welsh : Castle White is the literal translation. Although technically, the extra n is an affectation but looks so much better for it.

I am normally much more discreet over the alcohol additions to my and but last night was a weak moment, sorry Irv.

I thought it might have been white something but I wasn't sure because I didn't recognise the spelling. And feel free to call me Eddie. I don't mind, it's what I want people to call me. It's not my real name though but I hate that so lets just stick with Eddie.

Understood, Eddie.

*Irving temporarily takes the IIEM off of autopilot, in order to make the drink he's been working on. He takes out a very large latte mug, and sets it to one side. He takes out a gallon of skim milk (skim milk froths better than any other kind), and pours some into an empty metal steaming pitcher. He takes out a gallon of chocolate milk and pours some of that into another empty metal steaming pitcher. He replaces both bottles of milk. He begins simultaneously steaming both pitcher's of milk.

Meanwhile, he takes out six of the little metal espresso pitchers that he pours the shots into before pouring them into the drinks. He coats the bottoms of two of them with thick chocolate syrup, and the bottoms of two more with thick caramel syrup. The milks are done steaming now, so he sets both of the pitchers aside to let the foam settle to the top. He pulls six shots of espresso from the IIEM, each shot into another one of the individual little pitchers, including the ones with the syrup in them. He uses a spoon to stir up the shots that include syrup after they're done.

Then, he starts making the drink:

First, he fills the mug a little less than a third of the way with chocolate milk. He pours then pours both shots of the chocolate/espresso mixture in very slowly and carefully so that the espresso and chocolate settles above the milk but below the froth.

Next, he fills a little less than the next third of the mug (once again, very carefully) with skim milk, which settles on top of the previous third that contains the chocolate milk. Into this he (carefully, ever so carefully) pours the two normal espresso shots so that they settle between the skim milk and the skim milk foam.

Finally, he fills almost the rest of the mug with more chocolate milk, which settles on top of the skim milk. He cautiously pours the caramel/espresso mixture into the glass so that it settles between the upper layer of chocolate milk and the upper layer of chocolate milk foam.

The result is a drink that is layered like this:

Chocolate milk froth
---
Espresso/caramel
---
Chocolate milk
---
Milk froth
---
Espresso
---
Milk
---
Chocolate milk froth
---
Espresso/chocolate
---
Chocolate milk

He stands back to admire his work, and returns the IIEM to autopilot.*

[Mog] .... Now THAT is an interesting drink, Irv.

Thanks

Want one?

Impressive!

*applauds*

A virtuoso no less!

Yeah, give me one, IIEM.
*Sips it and falls on the floor, speaking in tongues*
>Translation< That's one good drink!

*applauds, impressed by having seen what is truly a barrista at work*

I'd like to try one too please, if it's not too much trouble!

[Mog] Kuporse,* you try it.

[Kuporse] [who wears a red shirt] Kupo, kupo!

[Subtitle: "Okay, I'll have some!"]

[Kuporse takes a sip, falls on the floor, and starts phasing in and out of the space time continuum. And also glowing neon purple.]

[Mog] Yes, I'll have some, too.

[*RSE, i.e. Red-Shirted Extra]

That happened to me once.

I think this drink needs two things:

First, a name. Any suggestions?

Second, a warning lable: The Surgeon General has found that this drink may cause improbable effects in red shirted extras.

I have no idea! I was always better at making them than designing the labels.

Wahey! this thread has been here for exactly 100 messages. How sad am I to have noticed that!
