Welcome to Day #3 of Chocolate and Coffee Theme Week.

Today's Califia Farms Cold Brew Coffee with Almondmilk Mocha (beverage) was distributed by Califia Farms, LLC (Bakersfield, CA).

Aroma notes included: chocolate milk and faint mocha.

The texture for this dairy-free, almondmilk-based, chilled coffee beverage was very smooth and similar to low-fat dairy-milk.

The (Rainforest Alliance certified) cold brew coffee and chocolate (alkalized cocoa powder) flavors were relatively mild and pleasant. (There were also very faint nut and vanilla-like notes.)

The caffeine level (less than 50 mg in this bottle) and sweetness levels (Total carbs.: 17 g., including 2 g. fiber) were relatively low as well, making this a relatively relaxing, pick-me-up. It was a smooth, cold beverage enjoyed on a warm afternoon that still let me sleep later in the evening.

Ingredients: Cold brew coffee (water, coffee), almondmilk (almonds, water), cane sugar, alkalized cocoa powder, natural flavor, potassium citrate, calcium carbonate, sea salt, sunflower lecithin, monk fruit juice concentrate, guar gum, gellan gum.

Allergen-related information: Contains almonds. (Vegan, Kosher, Non-GMO Verified, carrageenan free, gluten free)

Today was Day #1 of Chocolate and Citrus/Orange Theme Week. I visited Calafia Market a Go Go (adjacent to Calafia Restaurant) in Palo Alto this past week. I picked up a chocolate muffin and chocolate cookie on this trip -- both gluten free.

Today I ate the chocolate muffin for breakfast. I loved the hint of citrus I got in every other bite of this dense but not overly heavy treat. Very nice. And this muffin was not overly sweet -- even better!

Thank you to Chef Charlie Ayers, the force behind Calafia, for making delicious, healthy, gluten-free food available to our community in the San Francisco Bay Area.
