Those of you that know me know that I rant and rave Unfortunately I rant more than I should and more than I rave (I'm working on it). Now that I have shared a big flaw let me redeem myself a bit.
I recently noticed the new commercial for creamers that taste like your favorite treats, namely Cinnabon and Almond Joy. Pay attention here because I'm putting in a disclaimer.....I DO NOT drink coffee. That's right I drink a concoction that is made with a cup and a half of expresso, a packet of cocoa mix or dessert syrup (whichever I have) and usually 2% milk. I occasionally skip off into the adult world and try a flavored creamer. My interest was peaked after seeing this ad but I was disappointed that it was Almond Joy and not Mounds, because goodness knows, I'm nutty enough. For 3 weeks I passed the creamer cooler at the grocery and gazed longingly hoping there would be a Mounds flavor. For 3 weeks I left empty handed but with a full list of flavors I wanted to try at some point.
Finally last week I just couldn't take it anymore. Truthfully, I was either really hungry or experiencing some kind of sugar craving inducing hormone surge. Either way the result was the purchase of International Delights Almond Joy creamer. I left hoping that the coconut and mocha would override the nutty part. Honestly if it has chocolate I can usually make myself deal with it :)
Ya'll this stuff is awesome! I think I called 6 people to rave about it after my first cup. It was truly like drinking a melted Mounds, I couldn't really taste any nuttiness. Yeah! So I have been happily enjoying this in my "coffee" for a week now and am still loving it. You gotta give it a try. Enjoy!
Sounds awesome....and yes you are "nutty" enough, but that's why I love ya! :)
ReplyDeleteWell, I DO drink coffee and I love to experiment with different flavors for creamers. I will put the almond joy on the "to try" list.
