Keurig Reviews & Tips

This is my first post since becoming pregnant with my 3rd child over 6 months ago. I have anywhere from 5-10 weeks left depending on if the little tyke goes over his due date (July 3rd). I decided to venture out to my favorite coffee shop in …

It’s October, my favorite month of the year, and a wonderful time to enjoy hot beverages. Van Houtte Harvest Blend is one I recommend you try this fall season.
I got about 7 of these in a trade. I wasn’t sure about it at first, but then Harvest Blend won …

After a lazy spell of about two months, I saw that I actually have a decent number of visitors to the site and that gave me the little burst of inspiration I needed to write again. It feels wrong to do a post that includes hot teas in the middle of …

The trouble is that San Lorenzo is described as a dark roast but …

Sometimes I’ll realize that I haven’t taken any notes on a familiar K-Cup. This happened today. No picture, no notes for Tully’s Breakfast Blend. “This should not be,” I told myself.
While at first it does not impress, the longer I sip away at a cup of Tully’s Breakfast Blend, the …

Is it the season for iced tea yet? For the last month, I’ve been brewing over ice again. I love how easy it is. The three Brew Over Ice teas I’ve tried  are Raspberry, Half and Half, and Southern Sweet. Since I’ve already reviewed the Southern Sweet, let’s have a …

I decided to brew this one at 6oz. I’ve been doing that more with flavored light roasts, and I’m usually glad I did. This way I can taste the flavor more.
I loved the hazelnut smell and the taste comes through quite well. It doesn’t have any unpleasant aftertaste either: very …
