Starbucks Holiday Drinks

starbucks5
We tested two Holiday drinks at Starbucks.
Julia got Eggnog Latte, while Camilla got Chestnut Praline Latte.
We had never tried either, and we were both excited!
We got our drinks to go, so that we could share, and do a taste test at home.

The Eggnog Latte tasted like eggnog but with less egg taste, which is a good thing.
Julia had never had eggnog, and thought it tasted like caramel.
We both agreed that it had the perfect amount of flavor.
Not to sweet, but with a hint of coffee.
It almost tasted like it had alcohol in it like real eggnog.

The Chestnut Praline Latte, tasted like hot chocolate with a nutty undertone.
Julia thought it tasted like Tim Hortons hot chocolate.
It did not have much of a coffee taste to it, but it was delicious and perfect for someone who does not really like coffee.

It’s funny how much we ended up loving our Starbucks drinks, because we both thought we would hate them.
We both thought they would be too sugary, and we were wrong.
We also thought the two drinks complimented each other nicely, and should be had together.

Julia said that the next time she goes to Starbucks, she is going to have her boyfriend order the Chestnut Praline Latte, while she orders the Eggnog, and Camilla agreed that she would do the same with her boyfriend!
If you have a friend our boyfriend we recommenced you buy one each and share them 🙂
That’s what we are planning on doing in the future.

What’s your favorite Starbucks drink?

 

// Vi var enig om at begge drikkene fra Starbucks var kjempe gode, og at de passer godt å drikke sammen. Så neste gang vi går dit med kjærestens våre, kommer vi til å la dem bestille eggnog latte, mens vi bestiller chestnut praline latte slik at vi kan dele 🙂 Håper dere får ei fin helg !

Hvilken drikk liker du best fra Starbucks?

Tasting Coffee – Thierry

This week we tried coffee at Thierry. It’s located at 1059 Alberni St.
Nearby are restaurants, shops and parking.

Thierry’s interior consists of wood and steel, giving it a mixture of old fashion and modern style.When you first walk in you will notice a circled table filled with treats. Caramels, chocolate and cookies. It’s like being inside a candy store for adults!
The music playing is loud, so after ordering we decided to sit on their outside patio.

We ordered macaroons, because Thierry is famous for them!
We also got some sugar cookies, an Americano and a latte with caramel and soy milk.
Can you guess who ordered what?

It was pretty expensive, but that is probably because we ordered macaroons and cookies.
Our coffee came in small cups, but then again they were super strong!
The strongest coffee we have had so far.

The cookies were too sugary for us.
However the macaroons tasted amazing!!!!
To be honest they are the best macaroons we have ever tried!coffee6
Pros : Amazing Macaroons
Cons : Too loud music, and too strong coffee, but that may be the true French way?

We could not finish our coffees, but we agreed that we would come back for the macaroons anyday:)

If strong coffee is your thing, you will love Thierry.
If macaroons are you thing you will love Thierry even more!
