Word: coffeey Part of Speech: adj Etymology: From coffee + -y. Pronunciation: /ˈkɒfiːi/ 1. Resembling coffee. Labels: informal, nonstandard Example: Take a typical paper hot-drink cup. Add a scoop (probably the equivalent of 3-4 tsp) of sugar. Fill the cup about 1/3 to 2/5 full with chocolate chips. Fill to the brim with nice hot coffee. Let it sit for a few minutes, then stir it a little, and drink it.

Mixes for sorbets and ice-creams should therefore, in their unfrozen state, taste a little too sweet, a little too sharp, and a little too fruity (if that's possible). By the same token, chocolate ice-creams should be very chocolatey and coffee ones very coffeey.
