One of the things that makes me incredibly happy is whenever my favorite drink is available at McDonald’s, but still, there are times when it’s not on the menu, and I don’t want to keep on driving back and forth whenever I’m craving it. So, I decided why not just make the drink at home so I can have it any time I want! While browsing the internet for a good copycat recipe that I could try, I found this video tutorial by Popsugar Food on YouTube, it was the most delicious drink I ever had, it’s even better than the original!

Food for me is an art form, so I get my kicks from playing around with flavors and ingredients. And, if you can't find me in the kitchen, I'm probably lurking in a cozy café, sipping on some coffee while indulging in my favorite burnt Basque cheesecake with either a book or phone in hand, of course.
