Does "as much as she loves coffee" mean "Though she loves coffee much" or "Like the extent of her loving coffee"?
do76)In 1732, the legendary composer Johann Sebastian Bach became involved in these "coffee wars" with his Coffee Cantata. It was a comical operetta about a traditional father and his modern coffee-drinking daughter. He tries to break her habit by telling her that sha has to choose between getting married and drinking coffee. Despite this threat, she sings "Ah, how sweet coffee tastes - lovelier than a thousand kisses, sweeter fat than muscatel. But as much as she loves coffee, the daughter does not want to go through life unmarried. However, she secretly explains to the men her father introduces that she won't marry anyone who tries to keep him away from coffee..
