A cup of coffee with cream and sugar? Cheap as hell. I’m not sure what a pound of beans costs in Sweden but it’s about 10 bucks here for a middle of the road bag, a little more if you want to be fancy.
A “coffee” from Starbucks or similar which is in all actually a fancy milkshake flavored with a shot of espresso? Gets a little pricey. But I wouldn’t actually call that coffee.
referring to anything and everything from starbucks as “coffee” is part of the strategy of the “culture” (keyword: cult) initiation. people want to feel like they belong, so once you master the ridiculous pretentious starbucks lingo and every barista in the zip code knows you by name, you’re in. and once you’re in, it’s difficult to leave. by design. and now that you associate “coffee” with “starbucks,” it naturally follows that if it’s not starbucks, then it must not be coffee
I don’t drink coffee but I have heard Gevalia is good. It’s probably the most popular coffee in Sweden where it comes from.
I have also heard coffee is expensive as fuck (and worse) in the USA compared to Sweden.
It depends on what you call coffee.
