It’s been a while, but welcome back to another blog about coffee!
March 20th is a very special day for a certain coffee shop. It’s the birthday of Biggby’s Coffee! Because of this, Biggby’s is offering a drink all of March to celebrate. Before the drink goes away, I figured I’d try it. Buckle up and get ready for the iced cake batter latte!
Usually when I’d go to Biggby’s, it would always be crowded since it was in the mall. That’s why I went to the Biggby’s that isn’t inside the mall. This Biggby’s is significantly bigger and offers an area to just sit and enjoy your coffee. When I went there, there were people studying, spending time with their friends, but the most memorable thing was this little girl. She kept coming up to cash register with different types of coffee and asking questions about it. The cashier would answer all the questions without acting annoyed. It was nice to see how welcoming the service at Biggby’s was. We all have been to a coffee place or just a walk-in place where the service is horrible and everyone is rude, and even sometimes have the worst drinks/food. Biggby’s is the opposite, and so is the coffee!
In my opinion, the coffee was as good as the experience. The iced cake batter latte starts with milk which is then mixed with espresso. After these ingredients are mixed, a cake batter sauce is mixed in. At the end, it’s topped with whipped cream and more cake batter sauce. To add some fun to the drink, you can add sprinkles. Having sprinkles in this drink adds flavor and makes for the perfect confetti drink. There was more milk than espresso which created a creamy texture and didn’t let the espresso dominate the taste. There was more of the cake batter sauce then everything in order to get the flavor that was needed. This latte had the perfect amount of sweetness and will keep you wanting to drink. There were times where you couldn’t taste the cake batter, but if you just mix everything a little more, the flavor comes back. Overall, I would say this drink was a success and should be around longer than a month! Cake batter and coffee are two of my favorite things, so making a drink with these two ingredients is like heaven.
The iced cake batter latte is offered hot and frozen, so if iced drinks aren’t your thing, you still have options! You only have a few weeks left to enjoy a fun drink that will brighten your day! Go get one before they’re gone for good!
What’s better than a great drink and a great staff?
