I. SAVEUR/BEVERAGE
Starbucks Almond Milk
“We created our own almondmilk recipe to complement our hot, iced and Frappuccino® blended beverages,” said Yoke Wong, manager on Starbucks beverage R&D team. “It was designed so that when steamed, it creates a rich foam for hot beverages and is delicious and creamy when served in cold beverages…
The almond butter in our almondmilk adds body and complements the roasty notes of espresso,” Wong said. “Because it’s unflavored, customers can customize to their taste preferences.”
Starbucks Almondmilk has light almond notes without any added flavoring. An 8-ounce serving has just 3 grams of sugar, compared with 12-13 grams of naturally occurring sugar in 2 percent dairy milk. It can be used in any handcrafted Starbucks beverage…”
MY PICK: "Short Almond Milk Mocha": Light and frothy with a mild nutty flavor that complements Starbuck's creamy chocolate and rich espresso flavors. The small size makes for a luxurious treat without an abundance of calories.

Alessandro Albanese Mantova Padded Jacket
“A beautiful luxury lightweight down jacket with an easy snap front. Insulated with ethically sourced 90/10 down, this jacket provides unrivalled thermal insulation with down fill being the most natural and effective thermal regulation system around. With secure zip pockets to the chest and snow-proof and water resistant nylon shell, this piece completes any look away from the stables, as well as when horse riding and between equestrian competitions." -Shop.AlessandroAlbanese.com
MY FEEDBACK: I personally wear this jacket because it is warm, yet not bulky, and the black yoke matches my riding boots. Additionally, the sleeves and button front make for a practical, yet stylish riding coat.
