What Exactly Is “Toffee Nut?”
Toffee nut is a popular flavoring mixed into drinks to achieve sweet, nutty, and toasty flavors.
It is based on the famous chewy caramel treat toffee, made from sugar, butter, and milk and sometimes mixed with various nuts, including macadamia, hazelnut, and almond.
Depending on the manufacturer, toffee nut uses the flavor from the toffee snack plus some added nut flavorings to create a new taste that will complement various drinks.
While toffee has been around for many years, toffee nut syrup just gained popularity in the last few years, especially when toffee nut at Starbucks was introduced.
How To Order Toffee Drinks At Starbucks
When ordering toffee drinks at Starbucks, the most important thing you need to check is if the beverage comes from the regular menu or the secret menu.
If it comes from their regular menu, you can order the drink anytime. However, if it’s not, have the recipe ready before you go to the counter.
Otherwise, you’ll make other people in line wait for you to get your drink, which isn’t fair.
Another thing you need to note is that toffee nut is an ingredient, so you can easily add it to many of your classic favorite drinks.
For example, you can experiment and ask the barista to add some of it to a hot chocolate and iced coffee.
You can also play around with the syrups. For instance, for better flavors, you can mix two syrups, such as toffee nut and white mocha syrup.
When it comes to toppings for your toffee nut beverages, there are many choices, such as caramel drizzle, mocha drizzle, and more. Simply ask the barista what options you have.
Lastly, it’s best only to order complicated drinks when there are few customers around.
During peak hours, the baristas are often too busy to ask for drinks that require a lot of steps as it may cause delays to some peoples’ orders.
