NBR: What's a misto?

emmelen

Since I cut dairy, I've switched to soy milk. So I go to Starbucks and order a coffee with hot soy. Today my cup has "misto" written on the side. Should I be calling it a misto? I don't want the baristas to think I am a coffee moron...

its the 5th one down.  Why they couldn't just call it a cafe au lait....

Seriously. But see, what I order doesn't even have milk, it's soy. I'm not calling it a misto.

A misto is half drip coffee half milk (or soy in your case). So next time ask for a soy misto.
