Brock Manson 0 Posted July 2, 2006 Share Posted July 2, 2006 Just got back in from town, and because it's absolutely roasting outside, I nipped in for one of their frappuchinos. And oh my goodness it was delectable! I had a banana and caramel one (yes I know, very gay but still refreshing) instead of my usual mocha. For anyone who doesn't know, it's ice blended coffee. But seriously, get yer arses down to any coffee shop and have one, they're heavenly and hit the spot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
