 Hello everyone, this is Amit Dan of amitdan.com. Today I will have another episode of drink video and I'll compare three different types of coffees from three different big brand names, McDonald's, Starbucks, and T-Martins. If this is your first time, I'll be a visit. Thank you for your support. On this channel, I'm always trying new and different ideas. If you appreciate variety, please go ahead and come back for more. If you're only looking for drink videos, there'll be links in the description box below. So I have done a few coffee and tea videos and I always wanted to do a comparison video between three different coffees from three different big brand names. So I have Tim Horton's coffee right here and the McDonald's coffee right here and the next to it I have Starbucks, which I have it right here. What I noticed that in the past, whenever I went to Starbucks, it's like self-service. So you have to put your milk and sugar or cream and sugar yourself. They wouldn't put it at the store. But this time I noticed that the guy asked me for how much sugar and milk I want. And once I told him that he put it by himself and I asked him actually whether this is something new. And then he mentioned that due to COVID, they're actually putting cream and sugar or milk and sugar at all Starbucks, especially this is in Canada. I'm not sure about other Starbucks in the world, but in Canada, he said they're putting cream and sugar at the stores due to the pandemic. But definitely when I was there before the pandemic, you had to do on your own. They wouldn't put cream and sugar. But it's different for McDonald's and Tim Horton's. They would always put cream and sugar, whatever you want. You don't have to do anything. So it's not self-service. You get a whole coffee all like 100% done. Another thing I noticed that only Starbucks gave me the sleeve. This is like just to protect you from heat if it's too hot. But for McDonald's and Tim Horton's, you have to ask for it or you have to get it on your own. They wouldn't give you. But at Starbucks, it was just there or the guy put it. I didn't have to ask for anything. If you look at the lid or cover, it looks like McDonald's has the best cover or lid. So I'm just going to open them up and I'm just going to show you one by one because it's going to be easier. Okay. So what's happening here? This is a McDonald's lid. So if you take a look at it, so it looks like this is the most friendly user friendly and most expensive lid. You can tell by looking at it and also you have to just push it under down and then you can sip it. And Tim Horton's have the second best one and you have to just kind of like break it right here. And the Starbucks looks like they're still giving the cheaper version of the lid. They haven't improved their lid. This is what I saw like many years ago. So definitely McDonald's has the best lid among these three. And these coffee actually they're all small. I asked for the small size and looks like Starbucks is small. It's actually bigger than McDonald's and Tim Horton's looks like slightly smaller in size than McDonald's. But I have a feeling that probably they hold the same amount. But definitely Starbucks has a little bit more coffee than other. And all this coffee they're one cream, two sugar. So if you take a look at it, let me just put it a little bit closer. Actually I'm going to just empty out like all three of them just to show you a little bit better. Okay so I had to take out coffee from all of them. And looks like this actually this cup has a mixture of coffee of all three. This is like Tim Horton's Starbucks and McDonald's. This is how Starbucks coffee looks like and this is how McDonald's coffee looks like. This is how Tim Horton's coffee looks like. So in terms of how it looks like, Starbucks looks a little bit darker and looks like you know McDonald's looks the lightest. And Tim Horton's is kind of like you know slightly in between. And so let's just start now tasting them. I'll just remove this one. Before removing this I just tasted this coffee and it tastes kind of like you know weird because it's a combination of a Starbucks, a McDonald's and Tim Horton's. Okay so we have now three coffee and let's start with the Starbucks. So I'm going to just you know try one by one and see how it goes. So here we have the Starbucks so I'll just test this first. Okay so let me just get the McDonald's which I have it right here and I'll just taste this now and here we have Tim Horton's so I'll just try this now. Okay so all of them have two sugars but I'm not sure the Starbucks coffee doesn't like you know taste like it has sugar so it could be that you know it's a bit bitter and McDonald's coffee actually tastes the sweetest. Always two sugar and Tim Horton's coffee is like you know somehow in the middle so now let me just sip them again. So the Starbucks coffee is a bit bitter and stronger so definitely you know this is the nature of a Starbucks coffee that you know they give the strongest coffee and I always find it a bit bitter and if you're not used to it then you're gonna like the taste of a Starbucks for that reason actually I would prefer to have McDonald's and Tim Horton's so this is a very strong coffee and even after like you know two cream it tastes a little bit bitter to me so I'll just you know get McDonald's again and let me just sip again. So this is a very balanced coffee I would say a well-balanced coffee it's not you know bitter it's not lighter so it's just somewhere in the middle and what I noticed about McDonald's coffee is that regardless which location you buy from they're always very consistent and the taste wouldn't fluctuate a lot you are going to get like you know exact same thing or almost you know same coffee everywhere and that's what I'm getting right now because I remember this taste and this is what I had it you know other McDonald's location and I like it this is you know so whenever you're buying coffee from McDonald's you can know or it can be assured that you're going to get what you're used to it's not going to fluctuate a lot let me just try Tim Horton's again so the problem with Tim Horton's coffee is that actually it's not the problem the taste differs based on where you're buying from sometimes you know they miss they give you very bad coffee sometimes if they're you know they make perfect coffee then you're gonna get the best coffee so this happened to me a lot I went to let's say one Tim Horton's and I didn't like the coffee then another time a few days later I went down to Tim Horton then I like the coffee so it depends on who's making the coffee and I have a feeling that you know they have their beans are from different sources or I don't know how they brew their beans but they're not like you know the same at every location they fluctuate so whenever you're buying coffee from Tim Horton's you know you're not gonna get the same thing it all depends where and when you buy and also you know probably the person who's making it it always fluctuates but Tim Horton sorry some McDonald's is more consistent in terms of you know taste and flavor and everything so you're gonna get the same coffee or almost same coffee at every location and Starbucks is like you know you always gonna get the slightly bitter coffee stronger coffee than the rest so if you are like you know looking for a small stronger caffeine boost or more caffeine then definitely you know Starbucks is the way to go and also this is more expensive this is kind of like in a close to three dollars and these two are close to two dollars so you're like you know paying almost a dollar more for Starbucks coffee and you're gonna get a stronger a bitter coffee now I'm liking McDonald's the most before I thought you know I would prefer Tim Horton's better than McDonald's and I never had them like you know side-by-side at the same time but today I'm gonna have to say that you know I'm liking McDonald's coffee more than Tim Horton's coffee at this time but in general I prefer Tim Horton's coffee more than McDonald's coffee or this is my most favorite coffee but today I can feel the taste and everything that you know this tastes slightly better than Tim Horton's but they're very on par they're very close to each other but you know Tim Horton's is going to fluctuate whenever or based on where you buy but McDonald's is more consistent so according to what I had today I'm going to say here that you know I had the best coffee from McDonald's and this is based on my taste and needs and Tim Horton's is very close and the Starbucks is just you know a little bit too dark so I'm not going to you know usually go for Starbucks unless I need heavy caffeine boost or heavy caffeine so in general I'm gonna prefer either McDonald's or Tim Horton's but in today's like you know testing I have a feeling that I have the best coffee and this is from McDonald's so that's my conclusion on this channel I'm always trying new and different ideas if you like what you see please go ahead and subscribe and I have more coffee and tea videos which will be in the description box below so thank you for watching this video there will be more videos coming up so I'll see you shortly thank you
