The Dirty White (or as I like to call it, the white and dirty) is life changing! It really is the most delicious winter drink I have ever tried. It's a sweet vanilla latte with ground cinnamon which is not overpowering at all. Before you run for hills, you should know I am not even a huge cinnamon fan. I don't even love cinnamon rolls! This concoction is just the right mixture of vanilla to cinnamon. Unfortunately for me, I am on a diet and delicious blends like this can't be my go to anymore.
Exploring other options on the Joe Maxx menu today did not disappoint. I tried a hot rose tea and the smell alone was intoxicating. It is loose leaf and it comes out right away, where they inform you to let it steep (mine was for about four minutes because it was a black tea). The rose taste was subtle which is perfect for my taste. I like this tea on its own I couldn't imagine how amazing it would taste as the base for a latte.
The ambience is nice. It's a slow and relaxing place where both unwinding and working seem to be live in harmony. I've never seen it packed. As I write this there are four other people here enjoying the brews. The music isn't too loud which I really appreciate. I hate it when stores blast their music. OH! Two more people just walked in. Six customers here now - seven including myself. The wood accents on metal chairs and counters really give it a clean, open, modern feel.
I'm a fan! I will be back. This hidden gem is so perfect I can hardly believe it is a chain. I'm glad they came over from the east coast and gave Vegas a shot!
