For the past year, I have harbored an unexplainable obsession with coconut. If something smells or tastes like coconut, I need to have it. So when I walked into Peet’s Coffee last week and saw a large poster advertising a new drink that contained coconut in the title, I ordered it without hesitation.

This new drink is called the “Coconut Black Tie” which is one of four new coconut flavored drinks that Peet’s unveiled this month. The Coconut Black Tie is a twist on their original Black Tie beverage which consists of a cold brew iced coffee, sweetened condensed milk, chicory simple syrup, and half and half.

The Coconut Black Tie delivers the deep, smooth flavor of the original but with the lightly sweetened element of coconut flavor. Normally, I’m not a huge fan of cold brew coffee but I really enjoyed the sweetness of the added coconut and condensed milk. It was a perfect combination of bold coffee flavor and sweet coconut.

When I discovered that this was simply one of multiple coconut drinks being offered at Peet’s I felt like the coffee gods had answered all of my prayers. The three other drinks sent from above include Coconut Solstice Iced Tea, Coconut Crème Javiva, and the Coconut Crème Latte. This is when I realized Peet’s Coffee gets me.

If coconut isn’t your thing I encourage you to visit Peet’s Coffee anyways. The customer service alone has me coming back for cup after cup of deliciously brewed coffee. The people at my local Peet’s are personable, patient and are customer service gurus. If you are tired of hipster shops that sell you an overpriced cup of joe but don’t want to succumb to Starbucks level coffee, then I highly recommend Peet’s as your affordable, delicious and friendly middle ground.
