What is this? What is going on? Hey, it's Tim in Berkeley, California. And today, as I was standing in line at a bakery I noticed this sign on the sidewalk for the coffee shop next door. They are advertising Brown sugar jelly to put in your cold coffee drinks. I don't know what this is. I understand putting sugar in drinks. Brown sugar, that's a stretch. But brown sugar jelly? Why would I put jelly? What is the appeal?
Okay, this is the first time I've ever heard of this, and it was so weird. You sent me down a rabbit hole. And after some digging, I think it's like an alternative to the little boba round things that you put put in tea. But this is brown sugar flavored. I can go in multiple drinks. I don't know. Don't quote me on that, but that sounds a little better than what I was thinking in my head. I don't know

But I am curious, and if I did see a piece, I would go investigate. We're talking about Pete's now, and I haven't talked about pizza in a long time, so truly, I'm leaning towards this is a marketing thing. They probably I'm guessing they got it from somewhere in Europe, the idea, and now they're bringing it to America. Anyway, I might just have to go try it just to let you go. Guys all know what the deal is

I suggest a liter and a half of it. Then you're going to need some jelly powder. Ideally, you might want to use chocolate, a couple of sachets, whatever. Then you need some brown sugar in proportion about 500 grams. Then you need a couple of eggs, ideally from chickens that have been brought up humanely. And then you might need a little bit of fragrance to add to it. So I'd suggest pandan leaves are really good as a flavor

Don't you have a pizza in Berkeley? They would definitely be an influence in this trend of brown sugar jelly for coffee. I hope all is well in California. Here in Ireland, days are exceptionally long, as you have in California. California. But pleasantly mild, rarely above 75 degrees. Bye for now. It's

Hello, everyone. I'm very happy you've waited in here. And I will say, Bernie, I think you're right. I think brown sugar jelly is actually not jelly as we think of jam or fruit preserves, but it is a form of bob, of a solid, gelatin like packet that sinks to the bottom of your cold coffee drink. I don't know why. I think it's from Singapore
