Testing

When I first tried Tim Hortons new Chocolate Peppermint Mocha Latte, I was disappointed at first that it was nothing like the classic Candy Cane one. However, the new drink is great because it is not as sweet as the classic candy cane therefore you will not get sick of it quick, and having it in the form of a latte is a nice, comforting winter drink. The espresso helps wake you up, and the warm, steamed milk is comforting for the dreadful winter weather.

Conclusion

In conclusion, Tim Hortons Chocolate Peppermint Mocha Latte is a delicious new drink, while we are sad to see their classic candy cane drinks during the winter go, we are welcoming the new drinks with open arms.
