The new drink translates as ‘Abundant Year Savory Latte‘ and features as an espresso and milk blend with Dongpo braised pork flavored sauce, with more pork sauce and a pork crisp as a garnish.
Dongpo pork is a Chinese dish that dates back to the Song dynasty of the 11th century and was supposedly created by a famous scholar-poet named Su Dongpo. For many years, this dish has been part of the traditional Lunar New Year celebration.
