As a tribute, Starbucks introduced Anniversary Blend, a complex, hearty coffee with cedary spice notes.<\/p>\n<p>Nearly twenty years later, Anniversary Blend is still expertly crafted from a blend of Asia Pacific coffees, starting with lush, full-bodied coffee beans from Indonesia and Papua New Guinea. Aged coffee beans from Sumatra add a distinctive, spicy flavor.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The tasting notes for this coffee suggest enjoying Anniversary Blend with a bowl of popcorn. I decided to take this one step further and add bacon and truffle salt. This coffee goes so well with buttery flavors, and the truffle salt really adds a richness when combined with the bacon and parmesan cheese.<\/p>\n<div class=\"easyrecipe\" data-rating=\"0\"> \t<link itemprop=\"image\" href=\"https:\/\/themodernbarista.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/tmb_ani1.jpg\" \/>\n<div class=\"item ERName\">Anniversary Blend with truffled bacon popcorn<\/div>\n<div class=\"ERClear\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"ERHead\">Author: <span class=\"author\">Jocelyn Freeman<\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"ERIngredients\">\n<div class=\"ERIngredientsHeader\">Ingredients<\/div>\n<ul class=\"ingredients\">\n<li class=\"ingredient\">8 cups popped popcorn<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">4 slices bacon<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">1 stick unsalted butter, melted<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">1 teaspoon truffle salt<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">\u00bd cup finely grated parmesan cheese<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"ERInstructions\">\n<div class=\"ERInstructionsHeader\">Instructions<\/div>\n<div class=\"instructions\">\n<ol>\n<li class=\"instruction\">Pour popcorn into a large bowl and set aside.<\/li>\n<li class=\"instruction\">Arrange bacon side by side on a plate lined with parchment paper.
