Instant Carmel Macchiatos...<br />
<br />
Whata we on drugs...lol<br />
<br />
<br />
I was at a Sbux yesterday. Seems to be the only place open late back at home(centerville ohio).<br />
I asked for a small coffee and the girl corrected me saying "so a tall coffee"<br />
<br />
ugh...<br />
But at least I didn't pay for it. They had to brew a fresh batch to which I replied "as long as it's almost fresh"<br />
<br />
I'll probably try some insta sbux soon just to see what I'm missing out on.<br />
Thanks for the analysis Brady

Have you guys tried that Nescafé Green blend yet? I don't know if it's already available in America. I googled it but didn't get any definite response. So, they add green beans to the blend and claim that it has 70% more antioxidants than green tea. Well, I tried and I'd rather drink 70% more green tea every day than another cuo of that.<br />

Yeah, they still do...now there's instant espresso, too...look for it near the "International Coffee Select" or whatever its called. And just in case you're wondering, it IS awful but if you're stuck, it works in a pinch, esp. for latte with sugar or mocha where you're not really getting the subtle notes, anyway.<br />

The only "instant" coffee i've ever enjoyed is NESCAFE, I discovered this insta coffee while working at a Greek themed coffee house in Houston.<br />
We'd whip up the NESCAFE with this soda jerk type of machine, the kind used to make milk shakes....<br />
by combining a few scoops of nescafe with a bit of water and sugar, we'd whip it into frothy goodness then throw in some ice a little more water and a touch of milk super yummy not like poor and dissolve weirdness heh

My sister is all over the instant coffee stuff. Ironically as I was making coffee in my french press in our "break room" (LOL) yesterday, somebody asked me how it's different than instant coffee and I began to wonder as well since instant coffee actually dissolves. Thanks for the clarification - my sister preaches instant coffee and how "good" it is; she actually tried to get me to try some over Christmas even after I brought loads of FRESHLY ROASTED COFFEE with me!
