Ministry of Bacon

If there’s one thing that beats the smell of a fresh cup of coffee in the morning, it’s the smell of bacon.  Thanks to Torani, the well-known maker of flavoring syrups used by coffee houses and bars everywhere, you can now have your bacon and drink it too!

Here’s what Torani says about it’s “Bacon Syrup” on its website:

“Bacon enthusiasts will recognize the same savory, meaty flavor as authentic bacon in this salty, sweet syrup. Torani Bacon syrup adds savory bacon flavor to cocktails, lattes, sauces and more. Just add 1/2 – 1 oz. of syrup to a 6-8 oz. beverage, and enjoy this innovative new flavor from Torani.”

Now there’s no excuse for baristas everywhere to not offer bacon lattes, and bartenders everywhere have a new secret weapon in the battle for cocktail supremacy. Expect this syrup to start appearing soon in the many places where Torani is sold, but if you don’t want to wait, you can order it online right now for a mere $6.95 (with discounts for those buying in bulk).
