tiramisu

Today, Starbucks has two additional drinks on their menu, the Tiramisu Latte and the Caramel Flan Latte. The Caramel Flan Latte actually debuted last year but is back as part of the caramel motif at Starbucks. So while I initially thought the Caramel Flan Latte didn’t really taste like its namesakes, I think the Tiramisu Latte is spot on. After my first sip, I instantly recognized tiramisu. 

The price of the Tiramisu Latte is a whole lot of fat. I went with non-fat milk and light whipped cream, and it’s still a loaded drink. But I think you really need some whipped cream for the full tiramisu experience, just not the same without it. I’m thinking this drink is a great seasonal addition. I can’t imagine this as a full-time menu option since it’s kinda too sweet.
