Craving

Suddenly overwhelmed with a craving for some sort of sweet, cool, expensive coffee drink with a silly psuedo-Italian portmanteau name.

Update: Yes, I got one! An iced mocha from The Bean on Curtain Street. It was three quid, and not quite what I wanted, but it satisfied the craving :-)

The creamy Anglo-Italian fusion, knickerbockerlatte?

Starbucks new Dulce de Leche Frappuccino is distressingly lovely, and has the added advantage of a pseudo Spanish/Argentinian/Italian name!

Precumably because they realised that calling it Dolcelatte would make it sound like it had cheese in it?

Mmm, cheesy drink!

You keep your cheesy drinks to yourself!

Well I like both dolcelatte and dulce de leche, but not in the same glass!

Drink tea instead!

Grange CHAI! With plenty of cinnamon on top!

I am now craving a Farmer's Union Iced Coffee...

*sigh*

(I wonder if you can get them in the Australia Shop...)

You mean like this mocha frappachino from Cafe Nero I have right here?

Small tub of chocolate icecream, pour espresso or filter coffee over it; stir.

Works a treat at home!

That's just pornographic!

Is that link the coffee equivalent of Up Skirt porn?

[identity profile] selectnone.livejournal.com 2008-05-12 07:38 pm (UTC)(link)
Oooh yes.

(and entirely Work Safe, if you hadn't clicked)

Yes I have clicked and although I'm not a coffee drinker, it was food/drink porny enough to make me want to go out a get a double espresso.

*Drool*... which one is that... ?

[identity profile] lovelybug.livejournal.com 2008-05-13 09:13 am (UTC)(link)

OT: did you manage to crack it? *grin*

So did you indulge then? ; )
