Café chain Jamaica Blue has rolled out a limited-edition Jaffa-flavoured white hot chocolate called Blue Latte.

Served in-store on a matching misty blue saucer, the caffeine-free drink is a twist on a hot chocolate featuring white chocolate decadence powder and blue curacao syrup.

Largely known for being a liqueur, curacao is made from the dried peel of a Laraha citrus fruit from the island of Curacao. The citrus notes in the curacao are combined with white chocolate powder and full cream milk for the product, which can also be served with skim, almond and soy milks.

To celebrate the launch of the Blue Latte, Jamaica Blue ran a campaign asking consumers to share the ways they have turned their blue latte into an accessory using the hashtag #IDoBlue.
