Unless you\u2019ve been living under a rock, you\u2019ve probably heard of Dubai chocolate. It\u2019s a thick chocolate with pistachio cream, tahini, and shredded phyllo pastry. It went viral over the last few years, and now Starbucks has jumped on the bandwagon to capitalize on the flavor and the popularity.<\/p>\n
Starbucks introduced the Iced Dubai Chocolate Mocha and, wow, is this thing a treat. I felt like I was drinking a decadent dessert – in a good way – rather than a morning coffee.<\/p>\n
The first thing to note is that there is A LOT going on here. You\u2019ve got your espresso and mocha sauce, standard of any Starbucks mocha drink, but then you add in pistachio cream cold foam and what Starbucks calls a \u201cSalted Brown-Buttery Topping.\u201d I wasn\u2019t sure how everything would mesh, but it proved to be a winner.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
This drink is much creamier and thicker than a usual mocha. It almost feels like you\u2019re getting a mouthfeel of a bite of chocolate. The pistachio cream cold foam stayed very intact and worked its way naturally into the drink like a dream. I\u2019ll admit that I don\u2019t feel the topping on the cold foam added much of its own flavor, but again, lots of meshing together here. I\u2019m glad Starbucks went iced with this drink – I\u2019m not sure the flavors would have had the same effect in a hot version.<\/p>\n

You have to know up front that you\u2019re getting a ton of sugar and even sodium here, but I was pleasantly surprised to see it had nine grams of protein.<\/p>\n
I\u2019ll definitely get this one again and might even consider it as a dessert by swapping the espresso shot for decaf if it\u2019s later in the evening.<\/p>\n
