Review Donut Shop Sweet & Creamy Nutty Hazelnut Iced Coffee

Hope everyone had a great Memorial Day Weekend!

 

I came across these new Green Mountain Donut Shop K-Cups today while I was at Target and I just had to try them! The fact that they came with a Keurig 16oz coffee tumbler made me want it that much more. The coffee can also be brewed directly into the tumbler which is great for those busy mornings! What I find most interesting about these Kcups is that they claim no extra milk or sugar is needed when you brew them. All the ingredients come right in each Kcup!

 





Let me start off by saying these are DELICIOUS! Being as picky as I am when it comes to what goes in my coffee, I was pleasantly surprised at just how good these are. The flavoring gives them just a touch of sweetness and creaminess. Honestly these reminded me of the iced lattes you get at Dunkin Donuts.

 

The only thing I didn't really care for with these was that you could only brew a 6oz or 8oz size. If you brew any bigger the coffee seems to get weaker in taste. This is kind of disappointing because I generally prefer a larger cup of coffee to start off my mornings.

 

For right now these Kcups have only been released in two flavors; Nutty Hazelnut and Original. I'm really curious what the original ones will taste like and I'll try to pick some up if I come across them.

Review of Colgate Optic White Toothpaste

 

Who doesn't want whiter teeth?

 

I love any product that promises to give me a whiter smile, however with my sensitive teeth I find there aren't a lot of products I can use. When I saw this toothpaste in the store I was very hesitant to purchase it however, when I saw it was on sale I couldn't pass it up.

 

 

I was drawn to the fact that this toothpaste contains the same whitening ingredients that are found in the whitening strips. As I said before, my teeth are extremely sensitive and whenever I use the whitening strips I find myself automatically regretting it. The pain is usually unbearable and not worth the promise of a whiter smile.

 

 

Lucky for me this toothpaste was gentle enough that I could use it on my teeth without them become sensitive and painful. I also noticed a difference in the overall whiteness of my teeth. Within a week or two they started to appear brighter and less stained. 

 



 

Overall I really did like this toothpaste and I will probably repurchase it. It did a good job of whitening without making my teeth overly sensitive.

Review Folgers Gourmet Selections Black Silk Kcups

 

I've always been a fan of coffee. Being the child of two coffeeholics, I can't start my morning without a good cup of joe. Back before the days of the Keurig Coffee Maker, I remember my mom always use to buy Folger's Black Silk ground coffee and it was always one of my favorites. You can imagine my excitement when I stumbled upon these babies in Kcup form one afternoon while wandering my local Target.

 

 

 

 

With the amount of Kcups I've purchased in the past, I've found that with certain brands the Kcups don't quite live up to quality of the original ground coffee.  These Black Silk Kcups however, taste exactly like I remember; bold, smooth, and full of flavor. They made a great cup of coffee!

 

 

I'm already down to my last Kcup in this box, so I'll be going to today to repurchase another box. Maybe I'll try another flavor while I'm there like Caramel Drizzle or Lively Columbian.
