This chilled drink with cozy flavors is perfect for enjoying this fall.
Combining rich espresso with the fruity sweetness of fig preserves, this coffee creation is delightful and refreshing. The notes of cardamom, the creaminess of milk, and a hint of mint is a unique flavor combination that you’ll love. It’s smooth, creamy, and just as delicious with a dairy-free alternative.
We recommend kicking off the changing season with a glass (or two or three) of this Fancy Fig coffee. Follow these simple steps to craft this cafe-quality concoction from comfort of your own home.
