Anyone tried the Starbucks Cold Brew, which they just introduced here? It's been in the US for a while but I never tried it.

There's a general strike scheduled for tomorrow. No buses, no subway. So I won’t be able to make it. Somebody should check if Starbucks is even going to be open. The strike for tomorrow is led by the Peronist union leaders and Cristina's party.
They want Macri to look bad while he is in the US looking for foreign investors. What a country !!!.....

i haven't yet, but i imagine it will taste a little different. the regular filtered coffee tastes much different to me here, guessing it's the roasting quality.

I will make it when I get back in mid Nov. Tomorrow will be a shady day to travel.

I'll be there with some latiya (a dessert of Guam with vanilla cake covered in a coconut custard topped off with cinnamon)
