So I keep seeing this new 'fad' cold brew coffee. It's in Starbucks for sure, but I've been seeing a lot of micro-brew boutique brands popping up in places like Whole Foods (yes I know, a shameful admission that I shop there).
As a fan of creamy sugared lattes, I've been reluctant to try it. Are the cold brew coffees always dark, non-cream? Are you supposed to add your own sugar/sweetener to taste?
Will the Starbucks barista give me a dirty look if I order a venti cold brew, and then request to add some hazelnut creamer on top??
Or is it always bitter just like straight black (hot) coffee and I'm just supposed to get used to the bitterness acquired taste?
