      I looked, the only place on the map within a 2-hour drive from me is somebody's house. How early is too early to knock on their door, do you think?

      Huh there's one place not far from mine. As a coffee snob this drink is probably not meant for me, but I am curious so I might just try it.

        I went and grabbed one. They were out of raspberry compote so it wasn't quite the real deal, but it ended up just tasting like coffee. Then my wife knocked it off the counter with 90% of it left....

    I'm definitely gonna try this! There's one cafe doing them in my metro area and it happens to be near my sister's place, so here's hoping

      I hope you love it. I haven't decided whether to travel half an hour to make the experiment but I thought it was an interesting article about a very fun achievement.

        I’m in the same boat, there’s one “close enough” to me (~30-45 mins), but I’m not sure it’s worth the drive since I’m usually just a black coffee drinker.
