I didn't know they covered it...

By "they", I mean Guns N Roses. By "it" I mean Live and Let Die by Paul McCartney. I heard the GNR version on the radio last week but the Macca version is in my head right now.


Anyway... I got a package on Thursday. I got my free sample of Dunkin' Shot In The Dark.

Remember last month I talked about it? I got it via Alexa and "Send Me A Sample"?

Well, it arrived. And I drank it yesterday morning.

No coupon was in the box, as I think some how it was opened in transit, but the can was still in good condition.

Honestly, even with it being ice cold and shaken well (because that's a serving suggestion), I didn't feel like it was "zomg.... must find and keep a cache in the house" worthy. It was a nice sip as I walked into work, but there was no hint of vanilla (for that being the flavor) and the espresso shined a little too much. This will sound so weird, but the burnt taste came through, for being a processed drink (not immediately made in a store).

I don't know if I'd jump to try it again. Maybe I got a fluke version and the other cans are better, maybe it's just me not used to iced espresso drinks. I guess I'd have to pay the money and try again, or do I chalk it up to "it's free; enjoy it whether you like it or not. Say 'thank you' and keep moving"?


Pictures or I made this up:

 

 

 

 











Pictures taken on my iPhone 6S (as my friend Tay says it takes "damn good pictures" [he's jealous because he's got a hand me down Galaxy S5]) and I blocked off my address of the mailing label plus a piece of the tracking number.
