Driving Barista is a new app that encourages Japanese motorists to put their phones down as they drive. Drives who don’t check their phones will be rewarded with a cup of free coffee. The app is activated when a person flips their phone over and begins driving, once the first 100km has been driven they receive a coupon for a free coffee. The counter will reset to zero kilometres at the moment the phone is lifted. After the first 100km the free coffee vouchers can be deserved every 200km.

Last weekend PepsiCo opened the company’s first-ever restaurant, the Kola House, in Manhattan across from the popular and trendy Chelsea Market. Although we only know PepsiCo from their tins and bottles cola and snacks, the restaurant isn’t completely what you would expect.

The rainbow food trend in latte art
8-9-2016
We’re following a couple USA based trend websites and they’re all showing the rainbow food trend. Because we’re not particular fond of the food colouring business, we never wrote about all those normal everyday foods that are popping up in rainbow colours. But although we don’t fancy drinking it, we have to admit some people are making great colourful latte art. We wonder when we’re going to get our first colourful coffee latte!
Frosé or frozen rosé

Frosé took the USA by storm this summer. The alcoholic treat was served in New York, New Orleans, and Washington, DC. Frosé will disappear from most menus once fall comes, but it will reappear for the slush-loving hearts next summer. We hope it will appear in the Netherlands as well, we love to try it!
