Last Year, I talked a bit about my experience as a “New” Coffee drinker. Most people try to reduce their personal vices, I took it upon myself to actively gain one with Coffee.
Maybe I should try adding alcohol next. (Not likely, though because I hate the taste not for some moral high ground bull shit).
I have been getting a bit too carried away with my various flavored coffees and creamers. Here’s my current lineup of available morning drinks.
Dunkin’s Donuts Mocha Mint – I bought this because it was on clearance because it’s holiday themed. I thought “I like mocha, it sounds kind of tasty, and it’s cheap”. I was a bit uneasy though because I am not a huge fan on mint things.
Turns out, the mint is very not minty, at least in this case. It’s okish, but not quite was I was expecting.
Steep & Brew Icing on the Cake – I think I had a coupon for this coffee and it was on sale so I decided to try it. I also forced myself to not pick the same “Mocha or Caramel” I get everytime from every brand and decided “Icing on the Cake” sounded tasty. I really can’t say much of what it tastes like, Icing I guess.
Folgers Gormet Chocolate Truffel – The obligatory chocolate coffee, because I am a Chocoholic.
Another part of what I have change recently is that I’ve started using liquid creamer. The dry stuff is cheaper, but it takes more to get the flavor and it feels… cheap.
This photo is a few days old so I only have one flavored creamer here, but I also have some Chocolate creamer, which is excellent. This one here was chosen because it’s Vanilla, I want the cream, but I want the coffee flavor to be more present. I also decided to try out “Fat Free” to see if it tastes okish (traditionally, I hate lite style foods). Surprisingly, this is more than usable. a lot of the unhealthyness of my coffee comes from the fact that I use a decent amount of cream and this helps alleviate that.
I also have these flavored toppings that I found for a few bucks at Gordman’s. I have not really used the cocoa but the vanilla suga is pretty good.
