Not sure what I expected from the description, but that pic definitely wasn't it, lol. Glad it was good.

A matcha drink isn't the one for a name like that. Needs more purple. Now *this* should have been called the PHM… https://www.reddit.com/r/nin/comments/8c9nsh/what_does_a_unicorn_frappuccino_and_nin_have_in/

And the last three are Twin Peaks references! I know it’s not directly related, but I’m such a fan that I had to point it out. Trent is also a fan of David Lynch, so comment not totally out of place, I think.

I mean THE Nine Inch Nails played at The Roadhouse in Twin Peaks The Return, so I think it’s related 😉

That comes about an hour after the coffee. Or maybe that’s complications of the flush.

As a Salem resident and a NIN fan I’m kinda stunned this exists! Thanks for sharing OP

What the heck is an upside down latte

Given the raspberries i like to think this is 80% a NIN reference and 20% a Tori Amos one, given that she referenced the Pretty Hate Machine in Caught a Lite Sneeze

("If you want inside her, well, boy you'd better make her raspberry swirl")

(I had to have someone explain that lyric to me back in the day. I'm AFAB 🫠)

They missed their chance, Pretty DATE Machine would've been a fiber smoothie sensation! And are we're not gonna talk about the TWO Twin Peaks specials??

That’s pretty cool. I’m debating hopping on the commuter rail and taking a ride down there at some point before Halloween. My Daughter hasn’t been before. She’s definitely gonna enjoy it.
