Sunday sipping with Starbucks ' small-lot Peru. I was lucky to find this in one of the Starbucks Reserve Stores.   The good thing about the small-lot coffees is that they're carefully crafted and roasted.  The bad thing is that once you get hooked, they're out of stock. That's why you have to enjoy it while you can. Dark and Rich.  Not woodsy.  Mild enough to drink alone.  Strong enough to hold its own with cheese and crackers. Since Starbucks no longer offers online coffee for purchase, you'll have to be very deliberate in keeping an eye out their Reserve (TM) stores. Highly recommended for Sunday Fun-Day or Monday through Saturday.

I've been watching a lot of the Sopranos lately.  And they drink a lot of espresso on that show.  Yes, I know I'm a little late on the Sopranos. Better late than never, right? Anyway, you can imagine my excitement when I got this new "Froth Pro"  Automatic Milk Frother from Capresso .   Capresso is more than coffee and espresso machines, they also have just about every coffee accessory you could want including just what it takes to make the perfect foam. I used Oatly Oat Milk with mine.  Love that stuff.  But you don't have to use oat milk, you can use any milk you like and you'll still get the results you want because this little baby does all the frothing for you. Forget about the manual frothers - you've got better things to do with your time.  Like enjoying a steaming hot latte. (*Capresso provided me with a free Automatic Milk Frother for purposes of this review.  Opinions are my own.)
