Some Salt with Your Coffee?


Before my day gets going….

From Time Magazine: Some Salt with Your Coffee? Taiwan's Hot Drink

Owner Wu Cheng-hsueh of 85°C basically ran with the idea I’d been mapping out in my head since my own personal discovery of coffee some 8 years ago (minus the salty coffee bit of course). Going to the source for Starbucks, and hiring gourmet chefs to design drinks that justify the million dollars I should be raking in…touché Wu Cheng-hsueh!

On a serious note, even though we all knew Asian governments wouldn’t let Starbucks run rampant circa USA 2000-2007, I’ll give credit where credits due. Can't wait to see the first 85°C store in my neighborhood and give this beverage a try.
