Mocha, macchiato, latte – coffee could be considered its own food group. With so many ways to get your coffee fix, it can be overwhelming to make a choice between the tall, decaf cappuccino or the extra-hot mocha with whip.

No need to worry. We checked out some of the cafes in and around campus to round up some of the most popular or specialty drinks to try the next time you need a little something extra – whether it’s to jump-start your day or a sweet treat to relax.

How to order a coffee drink:

1. Pick a size (small/tall, medium/grande, large/venti)

2. Choose regular, half-caf, or decaffeinated

3. Select a flavor shot

4. Add an extra shot of espresso
