Blackout Coffee Ready-to-Drink Cold Brew Blueberry Latte, Smooth & Creamy, Ideal for On-the-Go, Mornings & Afternoon Boosts, 11 fl oz Cans (12 Pack)

I received the regular Latte flavor for review. Some of my cans broke loose in the box from their packaging and were dented up all over, but fortunately the cans were strong enough not to break open.I normally drink strong black coffee, with no cream or sugar, so was interested to see how this Blackout latte coffee drink would compare. I recall the Starbucks cold latte beverages can be very sweet.This Blackout coffee drink was pretty mellow and sweet in flavor, compared to plain black coffee. I noticed from the drink's label that one can has 20 grams of sugar with 13 grams added, so I initially wasn't crazy about that. But fortunately this coffee drink was not overly sweet tasting.This coffee drink did spray out a little bit after I opened it, even though the can's instructions read to shake the can before opening. I don't recall the Starbucks bottled coffee drinks spraying when opened. So for this drink you may want to put a napkin or paper towel over the pull ring before opening.I noticed this coffee drink also contains baking soda and pectin, which was odd since I normally don't put those ingredients in my coffee. I looked up about baking soda and it appears it can be used to reduce the acidity of the coffee. Pectin is also used to improve "mouth feel" of some foods and drinks. So these are safe additive ingredients for beverages.There's also 2.5 grams of saturated fat added, perhaps due to the milk or cream ingredients. This coffee drink has 150 calories per serving, so something to keep in mind if watching your diet.But regardless the drink was pleasant tasting, not as much of a kick in the taste as regular black coffee. This seems like a decent drink to have in the middle of a hot workout, or if one needs to cool down after a meal and wanted a cold and sweet drink, to have as a mini-dessert.I couldn't find anything to complain about with this coffee drink. Definitely and interesting latte drink to try, since I don't drink lattes that often.

This review is about the drink, and my review of the product does not endorse or condone any political statement made by the product packaging or the company. Neither do said messages affect my review.I tried the regular latte coffee. It's a good cold coffee, but not the best I've tried. While it has a good, strong coffee flavor, it's slightly more bitter than other canned coffee drinks I've had in the past, primarily Japanese canned coffee drinks, which tend to be creamier. It's still enjoyable and a lot cheaper than importing those. Each can is 11 oz, which is a good size for a coffee, and they come in at about 3 dollars a piece, which is about what I'd expect to pay for a canned coffee beverage from the cooler.This is a good canned coffee to try if you like your coffee to taste like coffee. If you're in favor of hiding your coffee flavor beneath cream or flavors, this might not be for you. I enjoyed it and will definitely finish the case.

Not a fan. There are much better options out there for much less.

QUICK LOOK: Here on the ranch we drink a lot of coffee and we're not always able to grab from the brewing stations and a can just makes a LOT of sense as you're trucking out the door. These cans sound great as they are the right size and we love us some cold brew here, and latte is also a favorite. That being said the flavor profile on these cans is VERY coffee forward and a bit on the acidic side. Some folks love their coffee that way (including a few of us here), but it might be a bit too much for those expecting more "latte" in their latte coffee. The cans themselves are great and open easily.There's really only two dings with this coffee (assuming you like more coffee in your latte than an even mix of latte and coffee flavor).1. Not really sure why there's political messaging on the cans. I get that people want to make their opinions known. But on coffee? This is going to turn off a lot of folks (and maybe make a lot of them happy). That being said, we got a job to get done here, so messages on our cans isn't something we're looking for.2. They are pricey. Basically $3 a can. Which is a pretty common price range, but still a bit on the high side for the convenience of a can.THE GOOD STUFF:- Good flavor profile if you like your coffee flavor STRONG- Good quality in cans that open easilyTHE NOT SO GOOD STUFF:- Pricey (about $3 a can)- Not a lot of "latte" in this latte flavor. Very coffee forward (this could be a positive too if this is your preference).- Weird political messaging on cans that might turn folks off.

Cold brew coffee has the absolute best flavor. It is so smooth and when mixed with milk is almost like chocolate milk. It also has less acid so if coffee gives you an acid stomach this is something worth trying. This product has a little bit of baking soda added to it which probably also brings the acidity down. I'm not really sure why that's necessary but it certainly not hurting the flavor at all.Everyone in the house love this. First can we didn't even have completely chilled and it disappeared pretty quickly. One of us usually drinks our coffee black and still loved it.This does contain milk so be aware for those who may be lactose intolerant. One can also has 5 g of protein, 22 g of carbohydrate and 4 g of fat. Looking at the nutrition information estimating that there's a little over half a cup of whole milk and some sugar added to this.Overall I can recommend this product for flavor. It has a little more sugar than I care for. Especially first thing in the morning may lead to a crash later on for me but others experience may differ.

Even though it's in a can, this latte tastes pretty fresh and surprisingly good - it's not too sweetor tart to need any extra sugar or milk or anything really added to it. I never heard of this brand before,but would say it's as good or if not better than any other brand name coffee and looking forward to trying their other flavors, especially a chocolate/mocha one if they have one and see if it competes with my favorite mocha frap. Highly recommended!
