Scribbles About Food: Caramel Cocoa Cluster Frap

I know in my last scribbles about food I mentioned Cotton Candy is a top contender... this is another top contender in my book. This is the most vague and mysterious of all the fraps... it tastes mostly like a caramel frap... but the cocoa cluster makes me like it a lot too. Its really good, although not that different... but in a good way unlike the Cupcake Frap... which I talked my friend out of ordering when I was with her... lol.

So this kind of tasted like a Caramel Frap... but there was a little extra. It was a lot smoother than the other fraps I would say and something about the familiarity of the Caramel Frap taste of it, mixed with the exciting "cocoa cluster" of it and the mysterious name just kind of adds to the magicalness of this flavor.

Its kind of like a twist on the caramel frap... which I think works really well because the Caramel Frap is the OG. Its amazing, everyone likes it and for good reason. It actually tastes like coffee with just a little more to it. Its smooth and refreshing and that works... So Starbucks just kind of took something that already worked and added a twist on it. An improvement even, you might say... although idk if it is actually better than the OG Caramel Frap. Lol.

Sooo is this better than Cool Ranch Doritos... I appreciate the flavor so much that it might just be better than Cool Ranch Doritos. Its just a really nice, smooth and just very tasty flavor thats familiar yet original... and I appreciate that a lot!

So I recommend trying this. This might be a good one to start with before trying all the other amazing frap flavors. This will just kind of dip your toe into the differences in the frap flavors for this contest.


Byeee!

It List: May 2017

Can't believe it's the last day of May... this was a great time for TV... so let's get right into it! 1) Master of None- The second season of this show was really really great! I liked the first season... but this season was just wayyy better to me for some reason... I loved that they had episodes about Italy and about New York... I think they did a really great job and I was so impressed with it... I'll have to watch the first season over again and do a Throwback Thursday on that sometime soon... but until then... season 2 was great! 2) Girl Boss- I finally got around to watching Girl Boss this month too... and I loved that show! At first I wasn't sure if I was going to like it or not... then I just couldn't stop watching it and I finished it in 2 days... which I guess is when I finished all the Netflix shows I'm talking about... but still. Girlboss was definitely really good... and I feel like I could watch this one over and over again too. 3) Unbrea...

Blogmas Day 12: The 12 Days of Christmas Gift Guide

So I thought it would be fun to do a gift guide that every gift corresponds with the price. So like for the first day of Christmas $1 gift that would be good and then up from there. These would be good stocking stutterers and things I just think are unique. $1- Solar Powered Dancers!  My mom loves getting the little dancing solar powered people. We get most of ours from Dollar tree... other dollar stores have them too, they're super cute and fun for $1. Its good to put near any plants that you have that way you know they're getting sunlight. It's a good gift. $2- Mini Coloring Book!  At 5 Below they had some mini travel sized coloring books for $2. I thought these were pretty cool. I got the Botanical one I believe. Really cute and fun! I would recommend! $3-   Ceramic Truck w/ Christmas Tree  I saw this at the Target Dollar Spot and I thought it was cute and would probably make a great gift. If you know someone who has a truck or likes the sort of "rustic C...

Scribbles About Food: Gloria Jeans Pistachio Chiller (kinda like a frap)

So since I'm doing all of the Frappuccino reviews, I thought I would give a shout out to a different coffee chain that I like... maybe even more than Starbucks! But I hardly ever go to it because A) People get your orders wrong there a lot B) I don't really live near one! So Gloria Jeans has some amazing drinks called Chillers that are like Frappuccinos, but they have always had a ton of really good and really interesting flavors. One of my favorite Seasonal ones is the Pistachio Chiller. They had this around this time last year also and its a really good unique flavor. Basically it tastes like pistachio ice cream... but in a frozen coffee form. Its pretty cool! And Pistachio is a pretty underrated flavor in my opinion. I don't get it enough, but I always love Pistachio and Almond flavored desserts and this in particular is really flavorful and just a really good chiller. I don't think there is anything at starbucks that compares to it really, its really different...
