Saturday mid-day.

I'm at Boston South Station, waiting for a bus up to northernNew Hampshire. It's hot. Really hot. Not only that, it's also wicked muggy.

I have a couple hours to kill, so I've been outside on Atlantic Avenue. Across the street is a brand new Dunkin' Donuts - not even open yet. The pavement and brick radiate the heat on me. I'm sweating like a dog.

I duck back inside to South Station and wander the food court, looking for one of my favorites; Mocafe Ice Blended Frappes.

Nada. Zilch. Zero. No Go At The Station.

Finally, I settle on a large lemonade from McDonalds. Definitely not my first choice, but it's got ice in it.

There's two independent coffee bars in Boston South Station. Neither offered frappes. If I had a Mocafe sample with me - I'd drop it off for them to try.
