Last night I met up with someone at a local Starbucks for coffee. I like coffee but I don't make it at home unless we have company- and I rarely ever order it when we go out. But I like or I should say love is Hot Chocolate.
Now normally I am not much of a chicken to try new things (most of the times) but last night I was a little leery of trying a drink at Starbucks called Salted Carmel Signature Hot Chocolate. It consists of a sweet and salty combination with their Signature Hot Chocolate and the flavors of buttery caramel and smoked sea salt. It is then topped with whipped cream, a swirl of caramel and a sprinkle of our sea salt topping - a combination of artisan sea salt and Turbinado sugar from Hawaii.
Now I love things like Take 5 bars and Chocolate covered pretzels that combine sweet and salt- but I was just a little leery over this. So I came home and read about it on their website. Now I need to go back and try it...

I thought that looked good!
When I saw this, I was so excited. Every time I've stopped by Starbucks since they announced it, though, I've really needed the caffeine so I've passed.
I tried it this morning with a shot of espresso, still got a bit sweet for me towards the end.
