It goes without saying that one of the many reasons people drink coffee is due of the caffeine content in addition to the heavenly flavor. I realize that caffeine is a drug of sorts, and that (similar to everything else in life) moderation is key.
It also goes without saying that espresso and other arabica bean products have a noticibly lower caffeine content then their robusta bean counterparts. Now, what about the customers looking for BOTH a quality latte, or cappuccino, or other espresso-based drink AND a 'dose' of caffeine to keep them awake and alert?
This in mind, I was wondering if anyone has seen or used any sort of caffeine additive option. That is, a 'shot' of caffeine as an option similar to offering a 'shot' of syrup?
