Coffee & Tea Talk

Opened up the Chobani Pumpkin Spice Creamer. Had it with 1/2TB Nescafe Dark Roast Instant Coffee made in hot water. It's pretty good. I also got their Vanilla one.

SB is expensive. My limit is once a week, sometimes only a couple of times a month.

I didn't think they were that much more than Dunkin because my go to there now is a large Americano and it's a little over $3. A venti dark roast at SB is about the same. I ordered DD's SB drink for her and it is $6.50. That's ridiculous.

How much is a small?

How much is a small?

A tall (small) version of my DD's drink at the location near me is $4.75. 12 oz. You can check prices near you on the app.

Thanks. That's better, but still kind of expensive. Small is called a Tall? That's odd.

Yup. Tall= small, grande= medium and venti= large. They have a short that's 8 ounces. XS?

That might be a little too small. My coffee cup is around 11oz I think, maybe 12oz.

My usual dark roast coffee at breakfast before heading out to the gym then I was on the go all day so made a quick stop at SB for an Americano (tall). It hit the spot!

making a cup of kona coffee mixed with vanilla almond milk

 

[maggiedemi]

2/3 cup water microwaved 2 minutes, added 1/3 cup Chobani Pumpkin Spice Creamer and 1/2TB Nescafe Dark Roast Instant Coffee.

Finished up the Chobani Pumpkin Spice Creamer with 2Tsp Nescafe Dark Roast Instant Coffee. Exploded it all over the microwave, but luckily the plate thingy held everything and it didn't seep under. Easy to clean up with paper towels.
I guess I should stop putting everything in at the beginning, it always explodes.

kona coffee with vanilla almond milk and a bowl of apple cinnamon instant oatmeal with box of sun maid raisins added still seems way to healthy for me but gettng used to this way of eating

SB Fall Blend k-cup with plain almond milk. 1/2 of an everything bagel with Kite Hill non dairy cream cheese.
The bagel was blah... the Kite Hill cream cheese was not bad.. really. I can use this... It is expensive, but I am finding options...

 

[maggiedemi]

The bagel was blah.

What brand of bagel was it?


Nescafe Dark Roast Instant Coffee made in water, Chobani Vanilla Creamer. This creamer isn't as good as the cheaper brands, it's too thin tasting. Maybe because it has no oils or thickeners in it. Or maybe the other brands just know how to make better creamers, since they specialize in it.

Tried out the new Keurig this morning. Not really much difference between my former Keurig and this one when it comes to coffee taste, but the new one is so much lighter and easier to fill. I need to play around with settings because you can brew a stronger cup which I might try tomorrow morning. One feature I like is that it goes automatically on when you put a cup in and then off if you don’t make another cup. No more leaving the coffee maker on all day!

I wasn't impressed with the Kite Hill cream cheese. I prefer the Violife, myself.

I tried the local Salt Spring Coffee but I did not like it I prefer Starbucks or Tim Hortons

This was the first time I tried a non-dairy cream cheese. The grocery store does not have much to choose from.
