WHAT IS THE MACCHIATO AT STARBUCKS?

Starbucks celebrates coffee passion 3734081605.jpg through its featured beverage

 At Starbucks, Caramel Macchiato is a unique coffee experience because of how it is prepared. Macchiato is an Italian word which means ‘marked’. Starbucks Caramel Macchiato has a strong espresso charisma 3734081605.jpgwith layers of exciting flavors within the beverage.

How does Starbucks prepare a Caramel Macchiato? Syrup is added to the cup first, followed by lavishing steamed milk and foam. A fresh shot of espresso is then poured on top to ‘mark’ the foam. Finally, the beverage is topped with a cross-hatch of caramel drizzle.

Your penchant for anything sweet3734081605.jpg and buttery is fulfilled in Starbucks delightful Caramel Macchiato which is available hot or iced and may be customized with your choice of milk for a healthy or indulgent variant.  You can also vary the strength of coffee flavor by simply adding more shots of espresso to make it your own personal unique beverage.  Caramel Macchiato is truly a mark of Starbucks’ passionate3734081605.jpg coffee expertise.

We celebrated Chinese New Year at a new restaurant in the Greenhills area. We are hardly in that part of town, but it was nice for a change.

Tiffany & Co. Ads

By | Valentine's Day, What's New at Rustan's | 2 Comments

One of Heart2Hearts favorite ads are from Tiffany & Co. The photo says it all.Receiving a gift from the Tiffany Blue box has so much meaning.  Millions of people all over the world go to Tiffany to buy something for their special loved one.  I would say that a Rustan’s gift has the same meaning and the same power as the Tiffany Blue box…. So buying something from Tiffany & Co. inside Rustan’s makes it doubly SPECIAL!
