Our Guilty Pleasure
At home, I am a sucker for Starbucks. Specifically a grande, nonfat chai. I love them. This was especially dangerous when I lived on Hanover with Starbucks right around the corner... luckily I always had a few gift cards from my cuties at school to subsidize my addiction. Here, there's no Starbucks. There is a coffee place called Rituals which is good, and while their chai latte is tasty, it's just not the same. So, I have discovered my new, latest and greatest guilty pleasure here in Dominica, at the Shacks, from the Juice Man: a low fat iced coffee with a little bit of chocolate. I don't know how they make it, but man is it good. I also am a sucker for their juice: you can get passion fruit/mango/orange/grapefruit/guava juice alone or mixed in any delicious combination you fancy (Charlie loves to mix passion fruit and grapefruit; I prefer passion fruit and orange or orange and guava). I love it. Charlie does, too!
