Summer is in and the search for thirst quenchers and those chill drinks begins.  Café Coffee day CCD as it is commonly called has introduced new freezing cold beverages in their outlets under the ‘Winter has arrived’ campaign.  CCD outlets make great place to hang around and we have loved their offerings and their enthusiasm in introducing new products and offers regularly.  The new introductions include two smoothies and two punches. Sitting in a hot summer day and talking about punches and smoothies without having them is not a great deal but still for the benefit of those near the CCD outlets, here are the details –

The first in the list is the Tiramisu Smoothie, snack n drink awesomeness with cheese sauce, blended with cocoa powder and coffee on a bed of sponge cake and topped with cream.  The next is Strawberry Cheese Cake Smoothie, crushed cookies combined with strawberries and cheese cake is wholesome and combines it with a delicious corn spinach sandwich and it can be a ravishing lunch or breakfast.

On the punches side, we have the watermelon combination with Lychee in sparkling water in Watermelon Lychee Punch, trying to figure out the taste and quite difficult because both are overpowering aromatic fruits, certainly an interesting combination from CCD.  The other one is Tangy green apple with cucumber in sparkling water named right as Cool Green Punch and again a combination that is difficult to imagine but nevertheless interesting.
