DREO / DREO

DREO’s newest release to their BaristaMaker collection, the BaristaMaker Air, makes milk frothing at home easier than ever. With 8-in-1 versatility, this sleek and efficient milk frother can easily froth dairy and plant-based milk to make any café-style coffee drink imaginable. From cappuccinos to macchiatos, the BaristaMaker Air uses AeroSilk™ Technology to create an ultra-fine microform like your favorite coffee shop. This new launch joins DREO’s other leading coffee tools, designed to elevate your home coffee bar.

Using a patented Impeller Tip Max impeller blade, the BaristaMaker Air can cut large bubbles into a silky microform that is only 0.5 mm fine (just half the regular size). Meanwhile, the anti-burn propeller prevents overheating and ensures a rich froth without scorching your milk. The device’s multi-stage frothing program is designed to expertly control temperature, time, and speed for the smoothest possible froth. Just a few uses and you’ll wonder how you lived without this sleek and innovative milk frother.

The intuitive touchscreen display allows at-home baristas to switch between symbols to change frothing modes. Modes include options for dairy and non-dairy milk, giving you the flexibility to change your coffee routine without purchasing a new device.

The DREO BaristaMaker Air also makes cleaning up after making coffee easy. The device features a water-based, non-stick coating that allows quick cleaning with water, preventing clumping and scorching. Plus, this milk frother’s compact and sleek design is perfect for even the tightest of kitchen coffee bar areas. The DREO BaristaMaker Air is available at select retailers and online on Amazon.

What’s most surprising about Starbucks’ new secret Iced Lavender Oatmilk Latte
How (and why you should) order this variation
Starbucks Iced Lavender Oatmilk Latte

If you follow Starbucks on social media, you might've caught the brand's post yesterday about how to order a new (secret) variation of the traditional Iced Lavender Oatmilk Latte. I'll admit, I've never tried lavender coffee, nor did I have a deep urge to do so until I saw the Instagram post. I'm unsure if the bright purple for springtime or the curiosity around lavender coffee intrigued me to order this. Regardless, I'm glad I tried this drink because it doesn't taste anything like I thought it would. From the looks of this drink, I expected it to be super sweet and overpowering. Yet, after one sip, it's safe to say I'm hooked on the taste of lavender in coffee. The drink is light, smooth, and sweet enough without tasting like a whole dessert.

The Instagram post starts by ordering a Grande Iced Lavender Oatmilk Latte. When ordered right off the menu, this drink is crafted with Starbucks blonde espresso roast, creamy oatmilk, ice, and infused with sweet and subtle floral notes of lavender. Despite heading to Starbucks several times over the last month, I'm ashamed to admit I've never tried this springtime favorite beverage.
