SPOTTED ON SHELVES: Starburst Sweets & Sours

Starburst Sweets & Sours

The sweet flavors are strawberry and blackberry. The sour flavors are sour cherry and sour green apple. Also, if your candy IQ is greater than 200, you definitely know there was a Starburst Sour & Sweet several years ago. (Spotted by Lauren @CandyHunting on Instagram at 7-Eleven.)

FAST FOOD NEWS: The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf Cookie Butter Latte

The Coffee Bean  Tea Leaf Cookie Butter Latte and Cookie Butter Ice Blended Drink

With the presence of Starbucks seemingly everywhere, I sometimes forget about The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf (even though there are two locations with 1.5 miles from me right now). But the coffee and tea chain has caught my attention with their new Cookie Butter Latte.

It combines The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf’s premium espresso, brown sugar, and gingerbread with cinnamon sugar sprinkled on top. The flavor is also available as an Ice Blended drink that’s topped with whipped cream and cinnamon sugar.

The cookie butter-flavored beverages will be available until December 28.

If you’ve tried either one, let us know what you think of it in the comments.
