So that business flows in my favor - TCSP week 133

Hello, coffee lovers!

I'm joining in to answer the questions for this week's prompt, number 133.
Personally, I haven't been affected by any of the outings I've taken where my date doesn't drink coffee.

In my particular case, it's because when I meet someone I don't know or don't know well at a coffee shop, it's a work meeting, so it should be early in the morning or mid-afternoon. In that case, if they don't drink coffee, they could have something else, like beer, tea, or juice.

However, since I don't consider myself a stingy person, much less a sexist one, and so if I treat people, I like to pay the bill, in addition to whatever my date prefers to have, I always ask two things:

Why don't you drink coffee? And, wouldn't you like to try one of their recipes?

I've had multiple responses to the first question. I've heard from people ranging from I've never tried it to it keeps me awake.

If it's for a medical reason or the issue of sleeplessness, I don't insist on coffee or the second question.

It's better to order something at the bar.

But if it's any other answer, I insist; because, even though it may seem untrue or absurd, there are still many people, especially in the capital, who are unaware of the great culture that exists around coffee, and think it's only drunk in two ways: espresso and with milk.
I've had the experience of people who have been fascinated by cappuccino and even its cold version, the frappuccino. Coffee with condensed milk, with vanilla, latte, etc.

I've even tried it in desserts, and it tastes delicious.
I always encourage all my friends and clients to expand their culinary knowledge, and to do so through coffee. That's one of its superpowers. Especially because after they try these delicacies I mentioned before, they are delighted, and that way, business flows much more effectively in my favor.

Hola, amantes del café!

Me uno a responder las preguntas del prompt de esta semana 133.
A mí en lo particular, no me ha afectado ninguna de las salidas que he realizado en las que mi cita no bebe café.

En mi caso en particular se debe a que, cuando me cito con alguien desconocido o poco conocido en una cafetería, se trata de una cita de trabajo, por lo que, debe ser temprano en la mañana o a media tarde. En ese caso, si no toma café, podría tomar otra cosa, como cerveza, té o un jugo.

Sin embargo, como no me considero una persona tacaña ni mucho menos machista, por lo que, si invito, me gusta pagar la cuenta, además de lo que prefiera tomar mi cita, siempre pregunto dos cosas:
¿Por qué no bebe café? Y ¿No te gustaría probar alguna de sus recetas?
He tenido múltiples respuestas a la primera pregunta. Me han dicho desde: nunca lo he probado hasta me desvela.
Si es por una cuestión médica o por el tema del desvelo, no insisto ni en que beba café, ni en la segunda pregunta.
Mejor que pida algo en la barra.

Pero, si es cualquier otra respuesta, sí les insisto; ya que, aunque parezca mentira o absurdo, aún hay muchas personas, sobre todo en la capital, que desconocen la gran cultura que existe alrededor del café, y piensan que solo se bebe de dos maneras: expreso y con leche.
He tenido la experiencia de quienes se han quedado fascinados con el capuchino y hasta con su versión fría del frapuchino. El café con leche condensada, con vainilla, el latte, etc.

Es que lo he probado hasta en dulces y sabe muy rico.
A todos mis amistades y clientes trato siempre de que amplíen su cultura culinaria, y que lo hagan a través del café. Ese es uno de sus superpoderes. Sobre todo, porque después que prueban estas delicias que mencioné antes, se quedan encantados y de esa manera, los negocios fluyen mucho mejor a mi favor.

What a delightful read.

I really like how you turn something as simple as a cup of coffee into an opportunity for connection and even business growth.

It’s true that many people don’t realize how wide and rich coffee culture is beyond just “black or with milk.”

The way you gently encourage people to explore new flavors without forcing them shows a lot of respect and openness.

I also love how you tie it back to making interactions flow more smoothly, sometimes it really is the little things, like sharing a cappuccino, that open doors.

Thank you for sharing @iamberenice
