Big Ben Coffee

Recently Bree and I went to Big Ben for some fall drinks and we were not disappointed! I got an Iced Pumpkin Dirty Chai (dirty = a shot of espresso), and Bree got a Frozen Pumpkin Chai. With the heap of caramel and whipped cream on top of the sweet and spicy chai, we savored it until the last drop!
