Frozen Mocha Cold Brew

My last two posts have been about coffee. Although this is still coffee- it's blended coffee so I count it as different. I normally don't get alternative drinks, other than the few go-to's that I have; but, today I decided to mix things up. (Get it? Mix? Because it's blended. I know- I'm really funny.) The weird thing is, I used to not like coffee. I was one of those little girls that would go to Starbucks and get the vanilla bean frappuccino. But, I think I've matured (or have developed anxiety) and I now LOVE coffee.

This drink is described on the Panera menu as chocolate and an icy cold brew coffee blend topped with whipped cream and chocolate syrup. Let me tell you- it lives up to its expectations. Mocha isn't necessarily a hard flavor to achieve, but when executed properly, it is sooooooo yummy. She is truly an experience, and I loved every minute of it. Now, on with the ratings.

1. Taste- LOVE! It’s perfectly sweet and the chocolate was the star of the show. I could taste the coffee nicely and the flavors complimented each other so well. The only thing negative about this is that it might be a little too sweet, so I had to avoid a stomach ache by drinking it slowly. 8.7/10

2. Price- A little much… $4.59 for a medium 16oz. 7.5/10

3. Quality- She has rich chocolate and it's blended thoroughly so it's not too icy. I like it a lot, so 8/10

4. Aesthetic- She is SO cute. As a blended drink, it spices the aesthetic up a little, rather than just another iced coffee. Not to mention, the topping stole the show! The whipped cream with the chocolate drizzle brings it to a whole other level. 9/10

Overall: 8.3/10
