Transcript

What's your controversial take on coffee? When I go into a coffee shop and they're using Tehrani or Monin syrup. Couldn't agree more with our girl, Rebecca. Oh, let's try one of our lattes with our house made syrup. Okay. We are gonna try our caramelized banana latte, which we've had on since summer, and it good so fucking well that we just can't take it away because we can't do that to you guys. But give it give it a big stir and then a little sip. We don't use any fake bullshit in our syrups, and our beautiful culinary team makes this all in house and slays every single time. So that's all. Cheers.
