I started drinking this... and I just figured why not do a scribbles about food on this. I'm almost done with it.
I think this is something that is more of a "healthy" option compared to some other iced coffee drinks at the grocery store... like the Starbucks ones. I've tried a lot of other iced coffee drinks so I wanted to give this one a try. Maybe its a better option. "No High Fructose Corn Syrup, artificial flavors, or preservatives."...
Okay... nevermind this being a "healthy option." On the back the nutritional info says that 1 bottle is about two servings... so it is 150 calories for one serving... which isn't bad. But for the bottle its 260 calories... which is kind of ridiculous. I don't think its a ridiculous amount of calories... but come on. This isn't something you're going to keep in the fridge after drinking half of it... this is something you're going to drink all at once. So... that's a little sneaky marketing technique.
The flavor is good. It isn't that strong though. I thought I liked it better than the Starbuck's Frappucino drinks in the iced coffee section... but I think those might be more flavorful. I think there's a caramel flavor... but I don't think it really tastes like Sea Salt caramel. It just tastes like a caramel latte.
I feel the more I'm drinking this the more underwhelmed I am. I think my favorite sea salt caramel ice coffee was from Boathouse... but I think they only sell those at Wawa and I don't stop at Wawa very often.
I like Caribou Coffee as a brand... but they're kind of like the brand Sweetums from Parks and Rec. They used to make a granola bar that I'm sure had no real nutritional value whatsoever. I think it was like an expresso bar or something. They were delicious... but I'm sure there was nothing healthy about them. I used to eat them before finals or when I needed to study for finals... or when I went to concerts early in the morning. They had their purpose... but it wasn't a practical snack for everyday really. I don't think they make them anymore... if they do maybe I'll try it for a Throwback Thursday.
So this wasn't bad... but I probably wouldn't pick it up again. I liked it... but it was still slightly underwhelming.
