By its name you can figure out that this here Slurpee has a coffee flavor to it, much like the sweat that comes out of pores of Britney Spears&#8217; cigarette and Starbucks-addicted body after jiggling her pudgy frame through a dance routine for &#8220;&#8230;Baby One More Time.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p>I wish that 7-Eleven came up with this idea sooner, because I will admit, it seems a little weird for a 32-year-old <strike>quasi-product review blogger<\/strike> man to be walking out of a convenience store with a strawberry, banana, or Coke Slurpee in his hand.  Sure it is even weirder because I suck on the straw a little too provocatively and because of that parents usually pull their children a little closer to them to protect them from the grown man who loves Slurpees &#8212; apparently a little too much.  However, a coffee-flavored Slurpee would help with this awkwardness.<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, the coffee flavor of the Slurpuccino was like Madonna&#8217;s British accent &#8212; it was extremely artificial.  Just like actual coffee, there was a slight bitterness to it, but that bitterness was overcome by the excessive fake creme flavor.  Sweet, sweet caffeine might&#8217;ve made up for its flavor, but I couldn&#8217;t find anything about caffeine content on the Slurpee website.<\/p>\n<p>You would think that a national convenience store chain that serves millions of gallons of coffee every year to truck drivers, office workers, college students, and people who did not want to wait in line at Starbucks and will settle for something less could make a pretty good coffee Slurpee, but it seems those years of coffee experience were not used well or at all.<\/p>\n<p>Fortunately, it is a limited edition Slurpee that will be available only throughout February and March.  This timeframe makes it a great Valentine&#8217;s Day gift for the one you want to break up with.  Just buy one right before the break up and stick on it a card that says, &#8220;This Slurpuccino was very artificial, just like your personality.  This Slurpee will quickly melt away, just like my love for you has.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><b>Item:<\/b>  Cafe Latte Slurpuccino<br \/>\n<b>Price:<\/b>  $1.49 (32-ounces)<br \/>\n<b>Purchased at:<\/b> 7-Eleven<br \/>\n<b>Rating:<\/b>  4 out of 10<br \/>\n<b>Pros:<\/b>  It is cold.
