Pamper Yourself with Cafe Escapes K-Cup Portion Packs {Giveaway}

February 6, 2012 By admin 293 Comments

By a show of hands, how many of you pamper yourself each day? Take 10 minutes of “me” time a day? 5 minutes? Anyone? I know as a busy Mom, if going to the bathroom alone doesn’t count (which rarely happens anyway), I never get a chance to do anything for me. Fortunately, Green Mountain Coffee has come up with a simple, easy way to pamper yourself for a few minutes a day…Cafe Escapes K-Cup Portion Packs!

With four delicious flavors, you are sure to find something you love. My favorite, the Cafe Escapes Milk Chocolate Hot Cocoa, is fa-bu-lous with some homemade marshmallows. My husband did a double take with the Mocha as he was surprised by such a chocolatey flavor. The Chai Latte is perfect with breakfast while you can finish the day with Dark Hot Chocolate as it tastes more like dessert!

Brew Like a Baritsa with K-Cup Portion Packs {Discount Code}

November 9, 2011 By admin Leave a Comment

One of the things on my bucket list is to travel to Europe. While I am a far way from attaining my dream, I am able to sample coffees from around the world with the new Barista Prima Coffeehouse K-Cup portion packs! As a K-Cup Ambassador, I was sent the four varieties (Italian, French, Columbian and House Blend) from this exclusive collection of the world’s finest Arabica coffees roasted in the tradition of Europe’s most celebrated coffeehouses. Taste the flavors in easy to prepare and convenient K-Cup Portion Packs.

Before embarking on your coffee house tour, check out this video featuring Francesco Sanapo, a two time Italian Barista Champion!

In tasting the varieties, my husband noticed that the coffees were stronger, darker and more bold than other K-Cup Portion Packs. After viewing the above video, we realized that there is actually more coffee in each pack! After sampling all of the varieties, my hubby has settled on the Italian Roast….now only if I can get him to take me to Italy! Can’t head over to Italy? Check out the inspiration behind the collection in a virtual tour of some favorite European Coffeehouses!

Want to try them for yourself? Barista Prima Coffeehouse can be purchased online, at Keurig.com and select grocery stores nationwide. As a K-Cup Ambassador, I have an exclusive discount code to share:

I’m a K-Cup Ambassador!

May 23, 2011 By admin 7 Comments

Over a year ago, I first laid eyes on the Keurig. I was fascinated….60 seconds to a perfect cup of coffee, tea or hot chocolate? What’s not to love, right? I received the Keurig Platinum Brewer for review here at Experimental Mommy and we have used it every single day since!

I was so excited to share my thoughts on the Keurig Brewer, that I even posted one of my very first vlogs. And judging from the entries in the giveaway, I am not alone in my passion for Keurig!

Apparently, Keurig took note of all this coffee lovin’ activity and I was recently asked on behalf of Green Mountain Coffee Company (the company behind the Keurig brand) to be a K-Cup Ambassador! As part of the program, I will be testing out a new Keurig brewer and reporting on several varieties of K-Cups each month….heaven!

For this first month, I received the Green Mountain Coffee Breakfast Blend, Gloria Jean’s Hazelnut Coffee, Celestial Seasonings English Breakfast and Tully’s French Roast Coffee. So far, my husband and I have yet to meet a K-Cup that we don’t like. Of this bunch, he liked the Breakfast Blend and I liked the English Breakfast the best. Making our morning cup of caffeine in just 60 seconds is imperative to our AM routine. The Keurig makes it easy to select a blend, select a cup size, brew and go!

I’m looking forward to trying new K-Cup varieties each month! I am still searching for the perfect sweet tea!
