Kahlua Kicker to kick this blog off!

This is a blog I've been meaning to start for a couple of years now (at least). As I find new things around Eugene and Springfield (Oregon!) that I love, I will post them here to share with my family and friends who come to visit. I thought about what would be the perfect first posting. And as I was in my car the other day on the way back to work one lunch break, I just HAD to pull into the nearest Dutch Bros. for my most favorite coffee drink: Iced Kahlua Kicker. Let's see, how can I describe it? Heaven in a cup? Pure goodness? Well, if you want to get technical, it's their 3 bean espresso roast with Irish cream and their secret Kick Me mix. Matt and I have tried to replicate this beautiful beverage at home, but you really need the Kick Me mix, whatever is it. We think the secret ingredient must be an illegal drug because it's so darn addictive. Oh, and it needs to be an iced Kahlua Kicker. They serve it hot but it's just not the same. Okay, and the VERY best part...or, the kicker I should say? They're only $2!!! And that's for a large size! Yes, it's true! It's almost a secret menu item, like animal style at In-N-Out burger. But whatever...just order one next time you're here. But you might just move here afterward. Just a warning.
