I am not a big fan of flavored coffees. The majority of the time, I can't even tell the difference in the flavor. With a lot of flavored coffees it's more about the smell than the taste in my opinion. During my weekly Friday trip to Aldi I came upon this:
I am so ready for fall. This has been one of the hottest back to school years in my teaching career. The idea of a pumpkin flavored coffee said "fall" to me. I thought if I made this, it might magically trigger the weather to what it should be in October. When I brewed a pot of this coffee this morning, I could definitely smell the pumpkin spice. What surprised me was that I could also see and taste the difference in this coffee. It was a beautiful amber colored brown as I poured it into my cup. I added my stevia and creamer (both from Aldi incidentally) and tasted it. It was ahhhh-mazing! Even my husband, who loves his standard coffee, liked it. What a great fall treat! Best of all? Only $4.99 for the bag! I think I'll be picking up a few of these for some autumn-themed gift baskets as well. Kim
Oh how I miss Aldi...I keep writing the company begging them to come to Maine!! =)
