There’s no shortage of iced coffee drinks you can choose from to give you a much needed caffeine boost during these hot days. Maybe you make a homemade cold brew for your first-thing-in-the-morning java jolt, or grab a drink to go from your favorite local coffee shop. But this summer, sweet coffee lovers have taken to TikTok to share how they're blending lattes and chocolate for an easy drink that’s crackling good.
TikTok creator @espressoyourselfx3 posted their crackling coffee creation (the crackling effect comes from squeezing the cup) in an eight-second video, which now has over 30 million views and 1 million likes (and counting). Responses in the comments were mixed.
“I would pay a lot of money for this,” one person wrote, while others posed questions, mostly about how to enjoy the chocolate since it won’t melt completely in a cold drink. “Wait…am I to slurp that Dorito-sized chocolate chip through the straw?” another asked.
“It doesn’t go through the straw, but it does lend flavor to the drink over time," @espressoyourselfx3 explained. «You also get a nice little treat after you drink it.» Not unlike boba, which needs a special straw to be eaten, you can scoop out the chocolate bits with a spoon after you finish the coffee.
To make the crackling latte, you need a plastic to-go cup, chocolate chips, coconut oil, and your favorite cold coffee drink with ice.
The Summer Olympics are here, and for the ninth time, Ralph Lauren has dressed the U.S. competitors in his All-American designs, including jeans, a navy blazer with white and blue piping that’s emblazoned with the iconic Polo logo, a blue and white striped shirt, and a navy knit tie for a timeless—and truly American—look.
Happy Friday GPODers!

There may be no French cheese more familiar to Americans than brie, also appropriately known as the “Queen of Cheese.” Its popularity can be credited to its versatility, its visually appealing look when plated, the delightful way it oozes appetizingly when sliced, or even its charming name—it’s a lot more fun to say than, roquefort (though gouda is almost as entertaining).
Movies and TV shows have inspired interior design choices for a long time. Who doesn’t want their home to look like a Nancy Meyers film come to life? Wes Anderson’s playful and colorful film sets have inspired people to bring that iconic, quirky look home. And I’m sure purple living rooms have become more commonplace thanks to Friends.
