Don’t ban me but…

(I liked the Oleato) 🫣

I learned to cook in the Mediterranean, so I cook with an absurd amount of olive oil. So I figured if anyone was going to like this drink, it would be me.

I got a short of the oatmilk Oleato latte. And the first few sips were…interesting. I was driving, so there was about five minutes between my first and second sips, and I was really thinking I wouldn’t even be able to bring myself to take that second sip. It had such a weird aftertaste (though, to be fair, this is also my second time ever having oatmilk, I’m an almond milk girlie).

But I pushed through (because $5.75 for a short! A SHORT!) and damn it if I didn’t start to actually like it! It was velvety and lush! What sort of dark and weird hold does Howard have on me that I was actually enjoying it!

So, I’m one person who likes the Oleato. I probably would never do more than a short because I imagine the taste would swing right back around to icky in a large quantity. I also can not fathom olive oil in an iced drink, so the other five menu items are a no go for me.

But I might order the oatmilk latte a second time. Maybe.
