Visit the show notes for ISI Whipped cream recipes. I’ve seen some sped-up extraction recipes.
How can you tell if its real ice? …It melts.
Time 3:45…….
Different levels of carbonation for different brands
Real Maple or Honey does change the mouth feel, LINK to brands and their level of carbonation. Sometimes a high level of carbonation is great because some recipes have a lot of other ingredients competing for the total volume of the drink itself.

Espresso Tonic recipe, Levi uses just a hint of espresso in his recipe to allow for coffee to be the background flavor, rather than having it dominate the flavor profile.
Thought - why don’t we look at espresso as a background flavor?

Owl Puccino signature drink, the name plays into what the cafe used to be called. What about a signature drink called the Al-Puccino, and it can be made with almond milk?

Foolish Things Coffee Company, don’t be foolish, ask questions.
Oak Aged Cold Brew Float - was cool, you can use a brand like Time & Oak to get those flavors. They used local ice cream but not enough, lost the woody-flavor but like the idea and it was fun.

Do the next thing, hop on Yelp and find a cafe then ask the barista ‘where should I go next?’ and they may direct you to some wonderful place or party that only the locals know about. I also use Yelp to bookmark places I will visit in the future when you’re in that town.
Time 15:30
Why don’t we list the barista that came up with that signature drink like they do at fancy bars?
