The top 5 First Date coffees

Cafe_Zoe_02

Queensland coffee pioneers, Merlo, reveal something you may have wondered about. And they should know.

Merlo Coffee was named Australia's favourite coffee in Lifestyle FOOD's I Love FOOD Awards in 2012! Australia's biggest people's choice food awards, the I Love FOOD Awards reveals and celebrates Australia's favourite places to eat out as chosen by the Australian public.

February is officially Romance Month in Brisbane and to kick start courtships, Merlo has released the Top 5 First Date coffees.  Coffee dates are safe, non-committal and allow both parties to check out the other with the ability to walk away after 30 minutes, or continue the rendezvous to another cup!

So take note, the Top 5 Date Coffees include:

Mezzo mezzo: for lovers of milk & espresso equally, this 50/50 mix of the two will have you buzzing

Cappuccino: Perfect for your icebreaker fact - the name cappuccino means 'little hood' in Italian and was derived from the Capuchin monk due to the brown colour of their cloaks & their hood!

Short Macchiato: for a lift of caffeine with stain of milk - also doubles as rocket fuel to run if the date isn't quite panning out as you hoped!

Mocha: For those with a sweet-tooth, get in the mood with the combination of life's two great loves: coffee and chocolate

Long Black in a Merlo Keepcup: Earn brownie (or 'greenie') points from your date as you display your environmentally-conscious thinking by using a Merlo Keepcup for your long black. Every refill saves you 50c (if couldn't already wipe the grin off your face). Available online too.
