Barista Prima Coffeehouse K-Cup Portion Packs & GreenMountain Discount Code

This month I received the Barista Prima Coffeehouse® K-Cup® portion packs from GreenMountain as part of the Your Perfect Cup Ambassador program that I’m part of and for the first time, I really didn’t like the coffee very much. Now, before you X this coffee brand off your list you need to know why I don’t like it because it might just be your next coffee brand. You see, this coffee is STOUT, strong, deep, rich, it’s not a sweet cup of Joe. I like sweet, my husband on the other hand, he likes a stronger cup of coffee than I do so this has been his month.

the Barista Prima Coffeehouse® K-Cup® portion packs from GreenMountain  are an exclusive collection of the world’s finest Arabica coffees roasted in the tradition of Europe’s most celebrated coffee houses. They are designed for the passionate coffee lover, the richest, darkest varieties for the Keurig® brewer are now available at the touch of a button.

· Barista Prima Coffeehouse® K-Cup® portion packs are available in four varieties:

Colombia              

Medium-dark Roast
High-altitude treasure from a land of legendary coffee
Accented by wondrously bright, bold fruit notes and a distinctive hint of walnut, this deeply roasted cup elevates satisfaction into a realm all its own

House Blend

Medium-dark Roast
The timeless perfection of your best-loved coffee house cup
Classically balanced with a lively splash of citrus, subtle hints of bittersweet chocolate and a well-rounded, toasted-nut finish

Italian Roast

Dark Roast
A deep, dark-roasted delight, done right
This robust, heavy-bodied cup with its ripe fruit and berry notes epitomizes the time-honored Italian tradition of dark-roasted coffee house brews
Subtle hint of smokiness and a bright clean finish

French Roast

Darkest Roast
Sweet, smoky love song to the cafés of Paris
Daringly dark, smoky-sweet brew with a surprisingly light mouth feel
This intensely bold, elegantly-bodied cup provides indisputable proof of our roast masters’ consummate artistry

Out of these four blends the only one that I kind of liked was the House Blend, the next one I would drink would be the Columbia but I really gave all of these flavors to my husband because for me to like them I had to have half a cup of creamer with them. Really, I like my coffee sweet! I’m a sugar girl.

Green Mountain K-Cup Portion Pack Coffee Picks Pumpkin Included

I’m so excited that Green Mountain saw my request for a Pumpkin flavored coffee. Oh wait, I only wrote about that a month or two ago, that’s pretty arrogant to think they made this new coffee blend just for me, but let me tell you, I’m enjoying it. In fact, I’m out of what they sent me and will have to buy some more. I LOVE it. So to start off my Green Mountain K-Cup Portion Pack Coffee Pick list, Pumpkin is at the top.

If you Could Drink a Donut What Would Your Flavor Be? #YourPerfectCup

Having used the Keurig Coffee machine for years now I’ve narrowed down my favorite flavors and brands. My favorite brand is the Donut House collection followed closely by the Tully’s Brand. The Donut House® Collection captures the warm familiarity of your neighborhood diner in its delicious brews. Within the next week, you will receive four varieties of Donut House K-Cup® portion packs.   Each results in a reliable, straightforward cup that never disappoints.

The thought of drinking a donut was at first a scary idea. Most flavored coffees fail unless it’s your favorite flavor, my favorite flavor is vanilla and I like almost every coffee with that flavor. Chocolate has always been a harder flavor to put into coffee with success in my opinion. So I tried the Donut House Chocolate Glazed Donut flavor a year ago with much skepticism. Guess what, We Love the Donut House chocolate glazed donut flavor, both my husband and I. And when we tried the Extra Bold Donut house we were equally surprised at how good it was being plane. It’s delicious.  The Cinnamon flavor, my husband, he’s not a fan, but I enjoy it. With only four flavors, I find myself waiting for Donut house to try something new.

Here is a list of flavors you can purchase at Green Mountain or at Amazon.

Donut House Collection Coffee, Cinnamon Roll, 24-Count K-Cup Portion Packs
Donut House Collection Coffee, Chocolate Glazed Donut, 24-Count K-Cup Portion Packs
Donut House Coffee Decaf, Extra Bold – Light Roast, 24-Count K-Cup Portion Packs
Donut House Collection Light Roast Coffee, 24-Count K-Cup Portion Packs

So….Here is the question?

If you could drink a donut what would your flavor be?

Relaxing with Iced Tea

icedcoffeeYou all know that I can’t start my day without some form of caffeine in me and sometimes it’s just too hot for a hot drink. I am super addicted. I get head aches if I try to skip my caffeine fix. Summer time is all about iced tea, iced drinks, and cold coffee. My husband and I came up with a system to make me iced tea a few weeks ago but Keurig just made it even easier.

What we were doing:

We would grab a tea bag, steep some tea in a coffee mug, using water from the Keruig. Make some crushed ice and put it in a glass. Then after the tea has steeped add some sugar and pour over the ice. Not a bad process but we still had to wait for the tea to steep.

Now

We use the k-cups made for iced drinks. (do not use a glass cup as seen in my photos, glass can facture under this kind of heat and temperature change) Make a cup of coffee, or tea, put crushed ice in a glass cup, I added my creamer to the cup of ice. Let the coffee cool just a tad and pour over the ice. (You can brew it directly over the ice as long as you do not use glass)

Flavors that you can find iced beverages in k-cups:

French Vanilla Iced Coffee

Sweet Raspberry Black Tea

Sweet Peach Black Tea

Nantucket Blend Iced Coffee

Black Tea unsweetened

Sweet Lemon Black Tea

Southern Sweet Black Tea

Half & Half Black Tea & Lemonade

You can order any of these brew over ice flavors from Green Mountain Coffee.
