Taste Testing McDonald's White Chocolate Mocha

By: Finance Foodie

McDonald's McCafé recently rolled out a new seasonal beverage – the new McCafé White Chocolate Mocha. McCafé White Chocolate Mocha is a blend of 100% Rainforest Alliance Certified espresso with white chocolate flavor, combined with steamed milk and topped with whipped cream. This made to order beverage joins the existing line of McCafé premium Mochas, including Regular and Caramel, and the returning Peppermint Mocha. McCafé White Chocolate Mocha will be available for a limited time only beginning mid-November 2013 through January 2014. While prices and participation may vary, customers can choose from: · Small (12 oz.): $2.39 · Medium (16 oz.): $2.89 · Large (20 oz.): $3.39.

As the weather recently turned as white as this new drink offering, I decided my beverage had to match my scenery so I got one of these on my way to work the other morning. My thoughts? At 270 calories for a small with non-fat milk, I'd say its a pretty rich way to start the morning. The whipped cream melted pretty quickly so the white chocolate and coffee taste was fairly muted by the time the drink was cool enough for me to sip (McD serves their coffee HOT!). Overall, it was a nice, sweet, and more affordable way (about $1 cheaper than S'Bux version) to warm up my morning - although next time, I'll be skipping the whipped cream.
