Kenco Duo Salted Caramel Latte (Ocado) By @Cinabar

It isn’t as easy to get a decent coffee at home as you might think if you don’t have a coffee machine. Although these new Kenco Duo Salted Caramel Latte pods look like they need a machine, they actually don’t, they just need a kettle. I have tried the Kenco Duo drinks before but this is their new flavour, Salted Caramel.

One pod has two layers. You remove the foil and tip the milk powder section into a mug, under it there is another foil lid to peel, revealing the espresso powder which you make in the pod, then add to the hot milk. Once the water hit the milk section, you could really smell the salted caramel in the drink, it was sweet and creamy. I stirred this section quite a bit as it was a bit lumpy, but it did settle down. I then added the espresso without having stirred it.

The drink didn’t quite taste as strong as the sweet scent of caramel had made me hope for. It was a very mild flavour of caramel, adding a bit of sweetness, but what there was was lovely. I just would have liked it to be a bit stronger, it felt like it was half a shop of syrup rather than the full amount you’d get in the High Street coffee shops. It was still tasty though, and particularly good as an at home instant.
