Coffee Milk

Declared the official state drink of Rhode Island in 1993, coffee milk is a combination of milk and sweet coffee syrup, despite its misleading name that might make some people think the beverage is a simple mix of coffee and milk. Regarding the coffee syrup, Autocrat Syrup is the brand that is most commonly used – consisting of coffee extract, colorings, and corn syrup.

Coffee milk is often described as having the flavor of chocolate milk with a hint of coffee, and it is enjoyed at all hours of the day in Rhode Island – people make it at home, but it is also often seen at restaurants and diners.
