Cafe Granita

Cafe Granita

Condensation drips off of the clear plastic cup. You pick up the chilled vessel and put the straw between your lips. Drawing in the cold beverage, a sweet, yet robust flavor dances on your tongue. A smooth, velvety whipped cream mingles with the java concoction, and makes your taste buds shiver with excitement. You let the frosty drink go down with a smile from ear to ear. The mixture in the cup is so heavenly, it whispers in your ear to have more. Sip, sip, sip. Swallow. The napkin is soaked with condensation, and it's almost gone now. One more sip is left. You stare at the bottom of the cup, think that maybe you should save it for a bit later, ponder on the thought, then dismiss it from your mind and drink it anyway.
