Chelsea Coffee Shop Now Serves Cappuccinos in Bell Peppers, Thanks to Italian Coffee Expert

Forget PSLs and chestnut praline lattes. Forget $10 lattes made with imported raw licorice powder. A new-ish Chelsea coffee shop called Crave.it has just blown all those out of the water with a cappuccino served in a hollowed-out yellow bell pepper.

Besides the bell pepper drink, however, most of the other just involve a lot of whipped cream and garnishes carved out of watermelon rind — for example, the mocha drink called A Woman in Love in New York, which comes ringed with rose petals and topped with a watermelon rind heart.
