Chill Out
gROceRies
The mercury may be rising, but the temperature of our
favourite drinks is dropping fast. And for coffee fans,
it’s a refreshing change. For a limited time, Nespresso
(page 46) carries two new coffee blends designed
to be served over ice: bold-yet-balanced Ispirazione
Salentina, and cocoa-forward Ispirazione Shakerato.
Aspiring baristas can even shake up their own iced cof-
fee creation, thanks to the VIEW Shaker. Here’s to a
cool, cool summer.—Jill Von Sprecken
