Almond milk at Raleigh cafe
Back in the spring I posted about making almond milk lattes at home since no major coffee shops or even local cafes seem to carry almond milk. At least in downtown Raleigh this problem now has a solution: Cafe Benelux at City Market. Yesterday I met a friend for coffee, ordered an iced chai latte, prepared to drink it with regular milk if I had to, and just as I finished paying and looked up at the shelf I saw it: Silk almond milk. I immediately asked that my drink be made with it instead. Back in April I visited Cafe Benelux for the first time with my best twin friends visiting from Berlin. At that time I asked whether they would consider carrying almond milk, but they weren't sure. I guess I'm not the only person who asked. I'm so glad there is a local business offering more than the large chains - in so many ways. At least now I know where to go in downtown Raleigh for cafe beverages made with almond milk. Thanks Cafe Benelux!
