Cold Brew coffee popsicles

June 13, 2018 by jocelyn Leave a Comment

Nariño 70 Cold Brew popsicles When I was in Maui a few years back, I became obsessed with one of the “Hawaii only” offerings; Thai walls. You can order any drink with thai walls, and it is essentially sweetened condensed milk drizzled in the cup. I normally drink my coffee black, but this was a game changer.

Starbucks was testing Theo peanut butter cups in select stores, and my friend Melody went to Theo chocolate to get an up close and personal tour. During her tour, she sent me a message, saying she needed my address “right now”. I sent it along, and a few days later, a huge box of chocolates was on my doorstep, compliments of Theo chocolate.
