Make sure you get your mom a card for mother’s day. Wait a second.. card… mom… cardamom! I’ll take the cardamom latte please.
Mercantile is a neighborhood spot with locals hanging both inside and out. It’s open and spacious enough that people will walk their large dogs here and enjoy a cup while the pupper chills. The baristas here are also the friendliest I’ve encountered and wished me an enthusiastic hello and goodbye.
Let’s start off a little differently this time with the mug. It was a wooden material that felt rough and grating on the skin. The actual liquid inside was made up of their house made cardamom syrup, white chocolate, and cinnamon.
It was herbaceous in a way that felt like you brewed a mint tea and added espresso to it. I’d say the cardamom tasted in-between authentic and artificial. The white chocolate & cinnamon added a holiday-leaning twist that helped enhance the syrup. The mug was deeper than my enjoyment lasted, but it got the job done.
