Mmm...coffee...

Soft*Silver · 10-13-2011, 12:47 AM

today I found out what a K Cup was. Had never even heard of one. (I dont get out much) I stopped at Dunkin Donuts for a cuppa coffee and saw their add for Kcups in a box. huh? So I asked. Imagine that! Pay lots of money for plastic individual things that look like creamers (at least on the display they did). And now I hear they are weak and dont taste good.

I am ok now with not getting out much...

lol

You can make any of these with decaf if you prefer the taste without the jitters!

Mocha Frappe

3 tablespoons ground coffee to a half cup of water/ brew.

Place ingredients ino a blender jar in this order:

14 ice cubes
2 Tablespoons sugar (or what ever)
3 tablespoons chocolate syrup
1/4 cup of some kind of milk

Top with whipped cream from an aerosol can (it's only 15 calories)

Blend. Makes one tall or two smaller drinks.

This place sells really good coffee. They roast it there. I like the Black Eddy's Darkness the most.

Mmmmm...coffee...my major food group...Clay will attest to the fact that if my coffee is icky i am not a happy femme...

i love mine strong and black...most of the dark roasts are my fav...currently i'm drinking a store brand French Roast and it's pretty darn good! Alas my local store does not carry it - go figure. So when it's gone i'll have to wait until i get back to the Island to get more...

i prefer to perk my coffee...love the smell, love the taste and love those few grounds at the bottom of the cup...yes, i like it "crunchy" LOL (love to chew coffee beans and love the chocolate covered espresso beans too)

A Starbuck's Cafe Americano just rocks my world! Nectar of the Goddesses!!! Only Starbuck's knows how to make it right...made anywhere else it tastes like dirty dishwater...
