Hey friends! The articles and murmurings are true - bought Doube Oaks - and we couldn’t be more excited. Borough plans to stay for the long haul by partnering with the Down Home team to continue doing what we’ve been doing. We see a lot of synergy with Down Home, as they work toward building a North Carolina that looks out for everyone. Stay tuned for what else is on the horizon!

❄️ Winter Menu Highlight ❄️
Dulce de Leche Latte

Art by 🎨

Dulce de Leche (pronounced dool-seh deh leh-cheh) is a caramel-like cause made from the caramelization of sweetened milk. Dulce de Leche originates in Latin America in the early 19th century. The name translates to “sweet [made] of milk” in Spanish. Some of the flavor notes of Dulce de Leche are sweet and mellow, caramel, toffee, and butterscotch-like. 🥛🍬

Another variation of Dulce de Leche is Cajeta, which originates in Guanajuato, Mexico. Cajeta is made with goats milk, which gives it a distinctive flavor, as well as making it darker in color and thicker in consistency. 🐐✨

At Borough Coffee, we combine 20g of Dulce de Leche with 2oz of .coffee espresso, your choice of milk, and a sprinkle of cinnamon sugar to create the perfect winter drink. ❄️
