2. Latte

Do you like your coffee with plenty of milk? Darren says that means you don't like to take too many risks. "Latte drinkers tend to be mild-mannered, agreeable, happy to go with the flow," he said.

3. Iced Coffee

Who doesn't love a tall glass of chilled coffee? According to the expert, this may mean you tend to go 'against the grain' and play by your own rules. He revealed, "They want things done their way and could potentially be quite stubborn in certain areas of their lives."

5. Cappuccino

If you can't resist a hot cup of Cappucino, Darren says that you may be prepared to push yourself into unknown territory.

6. Mocha

"Very extroverted, outgoing, flamboyant, and potentially quite loud. They're the life and soul of the party," said Darren about those who love Mocha. He said that this beverage was very cute and most photographed on the 'gram too, thus suggesting that this choice is quite interesting.

7. Flat White

A flat white coffee is one of the less-known choices and usually it is only the true coffee-lovers who opt for this brew. "People who order a flat white tend to think they're a bit more sophisticated than others. They stand by their opinions no matter what," revealed Stanton.

8. Coffee With Flavoured Syrups

Do you enjoy a bit of extra flavour in your favourite Cuppa? Stanton says this may mean you are creative and experimental. "People who order these drinks could be quite creative though as they don't know how things will turn out with a drink like this, but they're happy to experiment and run with the idea," he said.
