Coffee Curious and Candy Corn
2Dunno how many of you try the unusual things your local coffee shops make. But today I went into one of my favorites after the market. He makes his own syrups and made a candy corn. One batch available until gone.
He does a good job with the so I said why not. Had cold brew with candy corn syrup. He even added a small spoon of actual candy corn to it. The taste was reminiscent of the candy corn of my youth. And of course not waxy since it’s a syrup.
It wasn’t a 10/10 but was actually drinkable and pleasant.
What unusual coffee drinks have you had before?

You know you summoned me like Candy Man with a comment like that.
But to answer your question, occasionally I add some sugar to my espresso
I like to live on the edge sometimes… heh
@capnjb lol. The first time I ever had Rosemary and coffee I ordered it with some trepidation. It was actually quite tasty it was a rosemary latte it was many years ago when lattes were even creamier than they are typically now outside of you know where and it wasn’t bad. It was in Kansas City. There’s a place by me every Christmas that makes a espresso drink call The Twig and the tree and it has Rosemary in it
@Cerridwyn Interesting. I’m very much a black coffee person, but I’m not adverse to trying new things
Rosemary was not on my bingo card however 
Is it a rosemary flavor or just a branch that is steeped in it? Or both?
@capnjb they were both made with real rosemary.
@capnjb and to finish answering your question the Rosemary latte tastes much more like rosemary. The place was some ways that did lattes you know the old fashioned ones in the really big cups
@capnjb I should probably edit instead of hitting reply again but the twig and the tree is a traditional latte sweetened with a little bit of maple syrup infused with rosemary and a little bit of orange oil
@Cerridwyn Nice
I like what I like, but I am always willing to try something new. And I grow rosemary 
@capnjb I drink my coffee black every morning. But when I go out and go into a coffee shop I usually want something different because I make really good black coffee at home
