Starbucks appears to be churning out new chilly brews quicker than Nick Cannon is having youngsters. All jokes apart, the most recent chilly brew to grace the Starbucks lineup is the Cinnamon Caramel Cream Nitro Chilly Brew. (Notice that there’s additionally a non-nitro model, as not all Starbucks places have nitro faucets. Professional tip: The Starbucks cell app will let you know which shops do within the location information!). A refresher for these not acquainted, a chilly brew on nitro means it’s infused with nitrogen and has a easy texture.
The Cinnamon Caramel Cream Nitro Chilly Brew has a chilly brew espresso base with a brand new cinnamon caramel syrup, plus vanilla candy cream chilly foam and cinnamon dolce sprinkles (a.ok.a. simply cinnamon) on prime.
Three observations proper off the bat after I acquired my drink:
- SO MUCH FOAM… and I’m right here for it. In case you take a look at my photograph in the beginning, almost half of the tall dimension beverage had foam, and I liked it. The vanilla candy cream and cinnamon have been pleasant.
- You too can clearly see the pool of cinnamon caramel syrup on the backside of my cup within the photograph beneath… extra on that later.
- I haven’t had a nitro drink shortly, so I forgot after which realized there is no such thing as a ice on this drink! No ice helps create a smoother taste. In case you don’t love watered down espresso, this one could be for you!
There’s an amazing cinnamon taste proper on the first sip, which I favored. I positively acquired some cinnamon roll taste vibes, which is ideal for the Midwest the place I reside. It’s like a hug in a drink married to a chilly beverage, so whether or not it’s 70 levels at some point or 35 the subsequent (this actually occurred final week), this one fits the climate.
My solely knock on taste was the caramel was fairly non-existent. That is possible because of the syrup on the backside, so I’m wanting to strive the cinnamon caramel sauce in an iced latte to check.
On one other be aware, I would by no means return to common chilly brew as a result of the nitrogen makes it so easy. It cuts the bitterness the chilly brew can typically carry and seems like a morning indulgence. Regardless of no ice, it stayed cool as I sipped.
This chilly brew is a winner in my e book, and I’m joyful it’s obtainable year-round. After my not-so-excited overview of the Pistachio Cream Chilly Brew again in January, I used to be delighted with this one.
