| - I can only rate this place based on their Smoothies, because I cannot bring myself to order anything other.
Food experience:
Have you ever had a sip of something and felt like you've been punched in the face by flavor? yeah that's what the first sip is like; a Die-Hard Movie level explosion, except you're not jumping through glass and the explosion is happening in your mouth.
This was the first time my co-workers tried The Copper Moon, I enjoyed the wide-eyed exclamations of "WOW" on that first sip.
The texture of the drinks are very smooth (well blended) with no chunks of fruit left from the blender. In my mango pineapple I enjoyed that I could feel each individual strand of the pineapples with the overall sweetness of a perfectly ripened mango. There is no lingering bitterness from the yogurt, and drinking it leaves me with a very refreshed feeling.
One co-worker mentioned that the strawberry kiwi smoothie had an excellent balance of strawberry to kiwi flavor (whereas most places is overpowering with the strawberry) which is indicative of some high quality kiwi's being used.
Order (no artificial fruit flavoring, all real fruits):
Strawberry Kiwi smoothie
Blueberry banana smoothie
Mango Pineapple smoothie
Components:
Fresh cut fruit, based on the flavor of the various smoothies I've gotten, they only use ripe fruits. I've never gotten one where it was flavorless or had the taste of an unripe (or overripe) fruit.
When I was watching them gather all the parts of the smoothies I ordered (for myself and two co-workers) I was impressed to see that each cup were almost half full of the fruits the barista was cutting!
2% milk, almond milk (I think), bunch of different spices, chilled (or frozen) yogurt and some ice, all blended together.
Prep Time:
Took roughly 5-10 minutes to have the order made, but there was no doubt it was all freshly prepared.
Price:
3.00 for a small, 3.50 for a medium and I don't remember how much for a large. A great price considering you're paying almost twice that for the same amount from other places.
Closing Thoughts:
Epic Win. You should go and try them for yourself. Leave your own experience/opinion!
I am always left with a sense of sadness and loss when I finish my smoothie, usually gone before I even make it back to the office. I think about ordering some of the other things they offer (cold coffee, iced latte..etc), but standing there, looking at the menu, those damn smoothies call to me, nay they DEMAND that I order another with their siren song of deliciousness, taunting me as I know that finding a place with a similar level of quality borders on impossible. I hate them for limiting my experience with The Copper Moon, but I love them with each euphoric sip I take.
