I need to know......

David mentioned earlier that he had not heard of coffee flavoured milk in cartons and bottles.

Do you or dont you have that over there?

I just looked it up and found this, and apparently it is unique to Australia. I didn't know that.

Coffee-flavored ice cream we've got--and I love it!--but I've never heard of coffee-flavored milk either.

I've seen bottles of--something--with the Starbuck's label on it in stores, but I don't drink it so I have no idea what it is.

I am flabergasted.....in a nation of so many coffee drinkers, that you dont have cofee flavoured milk.

Do you have strawberry, chocolate and vanilla flavoured milk?

I thought it was just me! :laugh:

When I go into the milk section I just grab a carton of milk. I don't really look around too much. I know we have chocolate milk here, and strawberry milk. But I've never heard of ice coffee milk. They might have it though. The next time I'm at the grocery store I'll look. :)

Yup! :D

We have chocolate milk and strawberry milk. Not sure about the vanilla milk though. Probably! :)

It's really coffee-flavored milk? Not just a bottled cappuccino (?), or something?

Those look good, Sue!  The bottom picture of the iced coffee - we can get individual size cans of different kinds of iced coffee here - Starbucks sells one and I know Cinnabon sells one, too.  I'm sure there are others.
 
But the coffee milk I haven't seen either and all the talk about it made me curious b/c, being a coffee lover, it sounds really good!  I did a google search and found out that coffee milk is "The Official State Drink of Rhode Island."  It's made by adding a coffee syrup to cold milk.  Here's the link to the "Rhode Island Coffee Milk - Coffee Cabinet" site (Coffee Cabinet is what they call a coffee milkshake):

Thanks Marie, that article is very interesting....but inaccurate, saying its the only place in the world where you can get it.

Coffee flavoured milk has been around since I was a kid in the sixties. As a kid I did not drink it, preferring the sweeter chocolate or strawberry, but as Ive got older, I do prefer it, if I want a flavoured milk.

I am still amazed that it is not a big market product in America.
