Another cold brew to your lineup, and another winner.<\/p>\n<p>Here for spring is the White Chocolate Macadamia Cream Cold Brew. New to the party are a macadamia syrup (added to the coffee) and a macadamia cream in the cold foam with a toasted cookie topping to cap it off.<\/p>\n<p>The first thing I noticed when I grabbed this was how creamy it looked &#8211; I&#8217;d like to thank my barista for clearly acing the cold brew to cold foam ratio. The cold foam was already settling nicely into the drink. There was also a generous amount of the toasted cookie topping.<\/p>\n<p>This might be one of the smoother-tasting cold brews I&#8217;ve had from Starbucks lately. I was delighted at first sip with its smoothness, and the macadamia brings a nice subtle sweetness. A little internet research tells me the flavor of macadamia nuts pairs well with coffee, so it&#8217;s no wonder it tasted good. For those unfamiliar with the nut, they tend to be a little buttery in taste, so there is no need to worry about a nuttiness overpowering your coffee. I was honestly surprised to see this had 20 grams of sugar in a tall, as it wasn&#8217;t very sweet at all.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/stbwcmacacb2.jpeg?resize=600%2C600&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"600\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-56128\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/stbwcmacacb2.jpeg?resize=600%2C600&amp;ssl=1 600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/stbwcmacacb2.jpeg?resize=300%2C300&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/stbwcmacacb2.jpeg?resize=150%2C150&amp;ssl=1 150w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/stbwcmacacb2.jpeg?resize=768%2C768&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/stbwcmacacb2.jpeg?resize=60%2C60&amp;ssl=1 60w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/stbwcmacacb2.jpeg?w=1200&amp;ssl=1 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve mentioned this in some of my past Starbucks reviews, but I&#8217;m not the fastest cold coffee drinker. But because of that, I&#8217;m able to report that the toasted cookie topping stayed in the cold foam as I sipped my beverage. And from the time stamp on my drink to the time I finished, that was two hours! I really appreciated that it didn&#8217;t sink in, and I still got some with the cold foam at every sip. All that said, and much like I&#8217;ve felt with other Starbucks toppings, this one didn&#8217;t have much of an independent flavor to it. The toppings always seem like a nice-to-have, but they don&#8217;t enhance the drink&#8217;s flavor profile.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m definitely adding this new cold brew to my rotation, and I hope it hangs around for a while!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Purchased Price:<\/strong> $4.75<br \/>\n<strong>Size:<\/strong> Tall<br \/>\n<strong>Rating:<\/strong> 9 out of 10<br \/>\n<strong>Nutrition Facts:<\/strong> 170 calories, 9 grams of total fat, 6 grams of saturated fat, 0 grams of trans fat, 25 milligrams of cholesterol, 90 milligrams of sodium, 21 grams of total carbohydrates, 0 grams of dietary fiber, 20 grams of total sugars, 2 grams of protein, and 145 milligrams of caffeine.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Starbucks, you&#8217;ve done it again!
