{Starbucks Delicious Pairings}

I feel like a big theme for my posts the past week has been all about date night ideas, perfect for staying in with your husband.  You see, when you’ve got a toddler {and not a lot of time to do a whole lot of anything}, it’s nice to be able to just put the little one to bed and have a date at home.

An idea came to me after visiting my local Walmart and discovering the Starbucks #DeliciousPairings they have with The Bakery at Walmart items.  Why not get some delicious Starbucks Dark Caffe Verona and some Turtle Brownies for our Valentine’s Day dessert?!

Once I came home, I began preparing my romantic meal, avocado & parmesan chicken , caesar salad and some delicious red wine.

After a spectacular dinner, we were able to enjoy Starbucks Dark Caffe Verona and a couple of delicious Turtle Brownies from the Bakery at Walmart.  They were definitely a delicious pairing, indeed!

On it’s own, the coffee was outstanding.  It had hints of both dark and milk chocolate flavors and caramelized sugar.  Paired with the Turtle Brownies, the flavor of the dark chocolate really stood out to both of us.

We like to purchase Starbucks in their stores, and also frequently brew our own coffee at home.  Ironically we had never bought Starbucks home brew coffees before, but I can tell you that it will definitely be our brand of choice in the future.  The in-home brew definitely met our expectations and made us feel like we were on a little dessert date at a nice Starbucks restaurant.  I can see this becoming a weekly date night ritual for the two of us now!

Enjoy!
