A customer today ordered a caramel latte, and the sweet, rich odor drove me a little nuts. In my butterscotch induced frenzy, I made myself a cocktail of raw indulgence: a 20 oz white caramel soy mocha. It's on!
Oh, man. I've had some coffee drinks in my day, but this one is seriously crazy. White chocolate and caramel could be overwhelmingly sweet, but the espresso in this drink really evens that flavor out. In fact, this drink reminds me of some kind of butter-and-sugar based delicacy. That combination of sweet and savory is irresistible!
One of the wonders of coffee beverages is that they're as practical or as recreational as we desire. The white caramel mocha is pretty much entirely recreational. I confess I feel mildly guilty drinking something like this well before noon. It's like a proper dessert drink. But wow, what a smile this is putting on my face!
