November Central Perk

Hello Coffee Lovers!
Today, I am sharing my coffee thoughts for November. I have had several types in the past few weeks, and am excited to share my reviews and stories with you.
Dunkin' Donuts: I will be starting off with a coffee that has a bit of a story. So, my mother and I have been getting Starbucks for the last few days and wanted to try something new. We went to Dunkin' Donuts and unfortunately had a rather poor experience. My mom "took one for the central perk" and tried the coffee. We ordered two small, regular coffees with almond milk. My mom has been drinking coffee for over 20 years, so her opinion is incredibly important and valid. She said the coffee was horrible, as it was bitter, watery and overall unpleasant. We both know Dunkin' Dounts makes an excellent cup of coffee, and has a high standard. However, this was a unfortunate experience. 
Starbucks Carmel Brûlée Latte: So, because of the Florida weather, I usually get iced coffee. I did try this latte iced, and I have mixed feelings. It tastes more of a candy bar with a bit of coffee than a solid cup of coffee. Although I did enjoy the iced version, it was not my favorite. I tried this latte hot and it tasted like the holiday season. A bit of a hyperbole yes, but it is amazing! Again, not a full on coffee taste, but the flavor is so bold and delicious, I can't help but enjoy it.
Starbucks Chestnut Praline Latte: My mom has been getting this latte. She loves it, but agrees with me that we both have been desiring a bold, hot cup of coffee. 
Panera Salted Carmel Coffee: How did we end up here you may ask? My mom and I decided to get this coffee because we hoped this would be that cup of coffee we were looking for. We both wanted to be able to make a pot of coffee, and go back for a second (or third cup). I can gladly say, this is that perfect cup of coffee. I suggested that we get something with caramel in it because I enjoy the iced caramel macchiato. This coffee was so very good, that we refilled our cup a few times. 

"You like coffee?" "Only with my oxygen!!"
If you know where this quote is from, go have a cup of coffee to celebrate ;)
