My coffee flavour is Grasshopper Pie. I have no idea what Grasshopper pies is. So, as I listen to the soft gurgle and trickle of my coffee brewing I do a fast Google search. Google shows a pastel coloured no-bake mousse pie with a chocolate crumb crust. That first sip reveals none of the flavour… Continue reading Pie Flavoured Coffee Series: Coffee 2๏ฟผ

I was drawn to a particular Keurig pod this morning. One of my favourtie flavours of pie is pecan. So when I saw pecan pie flavoured coffee I had to brew it. There is a buttery sweet odour to it.

That honey and molasses odour conjures up warm and cozy holiday feelings. My first sip of Brooklyn Bean Roastery Gingerbread Man brown sugar ginger coffee is no let down. Those… Continue reading Coffee in the pre-Christmas build up๏ฟผ

Coffeeโs wispy vapours
I sit quietly watching the steam rising form my mug. It is playful as it rolls and dances softly on the cooler air currents. There is potential for me to get lost in the steam this morning as my lazy mind rolls and dances with the wispy vapours. The window that provides my backdrop is… Continue reading Coffeeโs wispy vapours

Pink Pumpkin Vanilla Pumpkin Flavour Coffee

A sandwich in a coffee cup
There it is, the ice cream sandwich. I close my eyes and remember that long ago taste. It is a creamy rich taste that is smooth and sweet. The iciness of the ice cream is set against the soft cold wafer-like cookies that sandwich it. The cocoa flavour is strong and sugary. It is creamy… Continue reading A sandwich in a coffee cup
