Skinny latte or double shot capp? Coffee preferences may say something about personality type
A clinical psychologist surveyed 1000 coffee drinkers to discover their people pleasing characteristics.
So what did they find?
Like your coffee black? You might just be an ‘old-school purist’ who is patient and efficient, but may also be a bit moody. You might also be adverse to change.
Prefer a latte? These people might not be the healthiest, but they are the people pleasers and will help others where they can.
How about those new fancy frozen or blended drinks? The people who consume these drinks might be just as fancy. They have great imaginations and can be spontaneous, but this can also lead to choices that might not be the best for them.
The decaf drinker? Did you think they might be perfectionists and maybe a little obsessive? You would be right. They choose the healthy route (decaf coffee), but can overly worry about things (which is never a good thing).
Are you an instant coffee drinker? Then you are probably pretty laid back. Characteristics that may go hand in hand with this, however, are poor planning and procrastination.
Keep in mind that these are not rules or absolutes; researchers merely discovered some correlations that were found to be interesting.
