Sugar Rush: Grounded's German Chocolate Cake Coffee

This is not for the serious coffee drinker. It's for people who, like me, embrace fatty, sweet frappuccinos and occasionally reheat coffee in the microwave. This drink is dessert, cake in liquid form. And whether that thought makes you shudder or smile, I couldn't help but give this drink a spin. The coconut flavor dominates, chocolate comes in second, and coffee is but a minor afterthought. It's the sky-high sugar content, not caffeine, that will have you bouncing off walls the rest of the day.
