What to expect
Our Desi Cold Coffee is classic cold coffee blended with ice cream, a thick and frothy drink at $8.99. It is closer to a dessert than a coffee, and it is one of seven thick shakes on the menu.
02
Why it works in Ottawa
In Ottawa, cold coffee usually means iced coffee. The desi version is a different drink altogether: a thick, sweet shake with a coffee flavour, more like a dessert. It is a nice treat for summer or after a spicy meal.
