Just recently, Starbucks featured a new holiday beverage and it’s called the new Caramel Brulée Latte. According to Starbucks, the drink is a decadent espresso drink. It’s made of fresh Starbucks espresso, steamed milk, creamy rich caramel sauce, and whipped cream with pieces of crunchy caramel topping. They make it sound really good and it’s a must have drink for those who are coffee addicts. Now the question is does it really taste as good as it sound? Well, I heard from people who have tried the drink, they were saying “OMG, Ever since I tried, I’ve been having it daily” “Oh my gosh, it tastes so good” “It’s Amazing” I guess they went wild with this drink?

So I went to Starbucks and bought a grande Caramel Brulée Latte.  The drink was a bit too sweet for me since I’m not a sugary drinker kind of person. However, it’s very easy to drink and after you mixed whipped cream with the drink, you will see a lot of creamy stuffs attached around the cup after the drink gets cold. Also, it’s hardly to smell the fresh coffee aroma coming out of the drink because of the creamy rich caramel sauce and the smell actually makes the drink better. The drink was also a bit oily, but not as much as the Hot Pumpkin Spice Latte drinks.

I wonder how much time did Starbucks spent on to come up with this drink. It is a good drink, but not that mind blowing. It seems very popular among coffee drinkers and they even have a Facebook page for the drink.  For those who have tried and don’t like this drink, what changes would you make to this drink so that it will taste delicious?

    The Caramel Brulee Latte is nothing to write home about in my opinion. It tastes like a Caramel Macchiato. Of all the Starbucks holiday drinks nothing beats the Peppermint Mocha.
