To anyone who enjoys the spicy, intense Mexican hot chocolates or chocolate bars modeled after the
pre-Columbian Mesoamerican xocolatl, here's a new one for you: the
Aztec Chai at
Bourbon Coffee.
The Aztec Chai, as I read the menu, is a black tea latte (steeped black tea with steamed milk and foam), two shots of espresso, dark chocolate, and cayenne pepper. Woah now.

Foamy, spicy awesomeness. |
What I liked about it: - Delicious
- Spicy! Mostly at the finish, but the drink had a solid kick that left my palate a little dry and tingly.
- Not too sweet. This is my beef with most coffee shop chais/lattes etc. They always end up saccharine sweet, which a) makes me sick and b) makes me feel like it's a kick in the gut, healthy-eating-wise.
- Delicious
What I didn't like about it:- Only 16 oz? I don't know.
I think giving this place an awesome review will be
my first legit Yelp review.
