oddball shopping question

[Ms. Ann Thrope]

This is probably a long-shot question. We've been on a bit of a flavored iced coffee jag here at home, and we have a trip to Cozumel coming up. One of us is thinking it would be nice to make our own while on the island. Anyone have any idea if the Mega or any other store sells Torani syrups or anything similar? Or if we really think we're going to be jonesing for the stuff, should we bring our own?

Not sure about Mega but there is a Starbuck's near Mega. Over close to Senor Frogs, Carlos and Charlie's, and the new Hooter's. Might be able to buy syrups there. I know my wife buys hers from Starbuck's here in the States.

I remember seeing flavored syrups like that in Mega, but I don't drink coffee so didn't pay enough attention to know if they were that particular brand or not.

 

[Ms. Ann Thrope]

Thanks for the replies! I thought I maybe remembered seeing the Torani syrups lined up at the Starbucks there, but I go to Starbucks (here or elsewhere) so seldom that I didn't even know the bottles were for sale vs. just getting used to prepare people's drinks. And if Mega has similar syrups, I doubt we'll care all that much about brand (although we'll hope for flavors that go nicely with coffee).

OK... simple syrups like Bailey's???
