Adventures in caffeination...

It's no big secret around here that I am a huge Starbucks fanatic. But I've also been looking to save some money so I can do a few other things, and lately, I've found a non-$5-a-pop solution. :::cue the cheers:::


So these little beauties arrived - the bittersweet mocha sauce is awesome. I've been experimenting with K-cups, espresso and more - like syrups - to make the perfect coffee, and I'm happy to report, I've only been to Starbucks three times in the last two weeks. That's a miracle.




What do you think about my adventures in caffeination? I'm pretty proud, and enjoying the ride.

My favorite is a Breakfast Blend K-cup with one pump of mocha sauce, one Stevia pack, chilled in the freezer for 10 minutes, then iced with Natural Bliss french vanilla creamer.

    Oo, that sounds awesome! I love my Keurig and it is keeping me away from Starbucks and saving us some money. Right now, I'm trying to figure out how to get a good version of my favorite iced Cinnamon Dolce latte at Starbucks and your idea might just do it! I'll have to check it out. :)

    Where did you order the Mocha sauce from? Great idea to save.. We are getting ready to move to a location with No Starbucks and I'm already in denial that I will have to drive over 2 hours to find on.
