Cracker Barrel Old Country Store recently launched the Goo Goo Cluster Latte as a new premium drink inspired by a legendary Southern candy that is touted as "America's first combination candy bar."
The decadent new latte blends rich espresso, steamed milk, caramel, milk chocolate, plus peanut and nougat. The latte can be enjoyed either hot or cold and is finished off with a topping of whipped cream, caramel drizzle and of course, pieces of Goo Goo Cluster candies.
The new Goo Goo Cluster Latte is part of Cracker Barrel's Crafted Coffee line, which is made up of handcrafted espresso drinks that honor traditional coffee flavors, as well as signature and seasonal flavors. The Crafted Coffee menu also includes a Mocha, Latte, Vanilla Latte and Caramel Latte, all of which can also be consumed hot or cold.
