For those of you who remember into the distant, hazy past when I wrote my first post on Infinite Possiblogities you might recall that I had no idea where I'd go with it. A little over 100 posts later and many recurring themes and topics have immerged. I'm pretty happy with where it's at. But every now and then in between video game reviews and ranting about porn I get the urge to branch out and challenge myself by doing something new. Sometimes it works and becomes a new trend and sometimes it fails horribly but I always look back and think to myself "I'm glad I tried that." I like to challenge my writing skills and creativity, explore unknown places. So anyway, I thought I'd review/discuss a new food (or indeed drink) item that I sampled today. It was a Moccona Iced Coffee (Latte flavoured in case you actually care).
Anywho so I have this on and off relationship with iced coffee's. Sometimes they are so tastey and sexy that I wanna propose to it and sometimes they are a dregged out hooker who just makes you feel dirty and want your money back. But for me Moccona has "hot coffee" cred, plus I'd sampled a Moccona icecream sometime ago that was simply incredible, so I thought that the Moccona Iced Coffee was worth a shot. So what's the verdict? I dunno, it was a bit disappointing really. I mean it was ok but it was probably the most amature iced coffee I've ever had. Maybe I should've got the "double shot" flavour? I guess I'll have to wait until the strange urges for refridgurated, sweetened bottles of coffee return to find out. Speaking of bottles, Moccona is the only flavoured milk that I am aware of that is sold in glass bottles, which I kinda thought was worth mentioning. Does it change anything? Not really for me. I guess if you're genuinly concerned about the environmental implications of plastic bottles and cartons you might care? Or if you're a pretentious wanker, but I figure if you do fall into that particular category you won't be happy with an iced coffee unless it was prepared by a blind, Swedish barista who grows his own organic beans at a really specific altitude and charges $10 per glass.
*Aside: It's been a while since I added a picture to a post, so here's me with my new Street Fighter IV Fightpad. Can you feel the love tonight?
