Happy National Coffee Day! Central Perk Delivers!

September 29, 2022 by dadofdivas Leave a Comment

Central Perk Coffee

 

As a BIG Friends fan, I always loved Central Perk as a coffee shop, a meeting point and a place for people to just come together. I always wondered what the coffee there would taste like. Would it have a sign out front saying BEST COFFEE IN NYC? Sadly, the actual location was fictitious, but now you can get the taste of Central Perk right in your own home and I, for one, am super excited!

Recently, I was sent some of the “How You Doin’?” coffee and as a medium roast coffee I have to say that I was really impressed. It had a great flavor and I could definitely see myself hanging out with Joey on the coach and catching up on his day on set while drinking this cup of java.

If you are a fan of Friends, but even more so, a connoisseur of good coffee, then I would highly recommend grabbing some of this great Central Perk coffee today!

Grass Fed Coffee Gives You What You Need to Get Through Every Moment

September 25, 2019 by dadofdivas Leave a Comment

Grass Fed Coffee

Everyday can be a challenge. A challenge with balancing work, kids, and life in general. If you are like me, all of these things can sometimes drain you and you need a little energy push. I don’t drink soda, but I do enjoy coffee. Lately, people have been talking about how great butter coffee is. I have heard this called a lot of names, but in general it is a coffee that adds in oils, butter and works as a meal replacement. I also was recently introduced to a new coffee brand called Grass Fed Coffee.

More than just your morning brew – Grass Fed is a quick, easy, and energizing ready-to-drink meal replacement when you don’t have the time to eat a full meal during the busy back to school days! Grass Fed uses organic, fair trade coffee, MCT oil from coconuts, and has ZERO sugar. What’s more, the grass-fed butter is high in vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and healthy fats to keep your nutrient levels up throughout the day.

I tried out this coffee and I loved it. When they say that this is a meal replacement, it really is. I drank this in the morning and I found that I was not hungry all day. While this was my experience, I know that everyone is different so your experience might be different than mine. I will say however, that it does fill you up and if you are watching your calorie intake this is low in calories and thus allows you to find help in many ways.

Below is a video I wrote with a few more of my experiences with Grass Fed Coffee.

If you want to try Grass Fed Coffee for yourself you can pick some up on Amazon!

Summer Java Celebration: 3 Coffee Drinks to Cool Off Those Hot Days

March 9, 2019 by dadofdivas Leave a Comment

3 Coffee Drinks to Cool Off Those Hot Days

One has to wonder whether those who started coffeehouses in 14th-century Turkey knew how big coffee culture would become in the 21st century? Did they have any idea that this elixir of the gods would be turned into the deliciousness that is now frappes, cappuccinos, pumpkin-spiced lattes, and all other manner of coffee drinks?

That isn’t to say that modern baristas haven’t added to the conversation about coffee culture. The minute one savvy barista added a little ice to coffee, along with a dollop of chocolate syrup and a hint of mint, coffee-drinking moved to a whole new level. It went from being the warming drink that people drank in the bitter winter months to something that would refresh even the hottest of summer days.

It is those spring and summer coffee incarnations that this post celebrates. Here are three of the best spring and summer coffee drinks to try when temperatures get hot.

 

1. Vietnamese Iced Coffee

Vietnamese iced coffee is like the rich cousin of an old favorite. Sure, it’s “just” coffee with a bit of condensed milk. But…It’s what you do with the two ingredients that go into it that makes it so delish and addicting and one of the tastiest coffee recipes you can make.

You need:

• 2 TBSP Café Du Monde Coffee with Chicory
• 2 TBSP sweetened condensed milk

Steep the coffee grounds in a heat-proof container. You want the grounds to “bloom,” which allows the rich flavor that people associate with Vietnamese iced coffee. Two-thirds cups of boiling water ought to do the trick.

Once this is done, pour the steeped coffee into a heat-proof glass. Add in the condensed milk. Then add ice. Stir the mixture together.

 

2. Milanese Hot Chocolate and Coffee Drink

Spring mornings are a bit tricky for coffee drinkers. Many early spring mornings still retain the chill of winter on them. But by midday, the chill is gone and the heat begins to set in. While this may be problematic from a clothing standpoint, it’s easier from a coffee-drinkers’ standpoint.

In other words, if you’re going to drink something hot, the cool, misty mornings of spring are the time to do it.

On these mornings, drinks that allow you to combine early morning drink standbys, like hot chocolate or cocoa and steamy coffee, provide an extra special treat.

You need:

• 1/4 c. cocoa powder
• 1/4 c. sugar
• 1 1/2 c. milk
• 2/3 c. espresso or very strong coffee

Get out a medium-sized bowl and stir in the sugar and the cocoa powder. Continue to stir until this dry mix is combined thoroughly. Next, heat the milk until it starts to steam. Add in the dry mix, using a whisk. Continue to whisk together the dry and wet ingredients until the coffee/ cocoa mixture turns to froth. Serve in a mug with a dollop of whipped cream, chocolate sprinkles, or a dash of cinnamon.

If the day has turned hot and you still want this drink, allow it to cool down in the fridge and then add ice cubes. Top with whipped cream and drink. Mmmmm….

 

3. The Greek Frappé

Greek coffee culture is entrenched in Greek society, according to the Perfect Daily Grind website. The Athens Coffee Festival and the country’s €990 million coffee industry just go to show that coffee-drinking is alive and well in Greece.

And thank goodness! One of the most popular summer coffee drinks here stateside – the frappé – is actually a Greek import. Interestingly enough, the frappé signifies Greece’s entry into the cold-coffee movement.

Frappés sound so impressive and taste so delicious that you’d be forgiven for thinking that this icy drink is complicated to make. It isn’t. The flavor of this summer-sidewalk-cafe-favorite arises from instant coffee that has been blended with chocolate syrup, crushed ice, and other flavors, like caramel or mint.

You need:

• 1 tsp. instant coffee of your choice
• 1/4 c. water (It should be boiling.)
• 1 c. fat-free milk
• 4 1/2 c. chocolate syrup
• Crushed ice

 

Dissolve the instant coffee in the hot water. Allow this to cool down. Once it is, pour the coffee into your ice cube tray and put it into the freezer until you have coffee ice cubes.

Later, combine the coffee ice cubes, the milk, and the chocolate syrup in your blender and blend until the mixture is smooth. Add in some additional crushed ice and then blend once more.

Serve in chilled glasses with more chocolate syrup and whipped cream.

You can add other flavors to this drink using flavored syrups, like caramel, vanilla, mint, or banana. Your only limit is your imagination.

Spring and summer coffee drinks allow you and yours to continue to drink coffee as the days grow longer and warmer. While many summer coffee drinks are chilled, some are not. To enjoy a full-bodied, coffee-filled summer, include both kinds to make every day right as rain and just as refreshing.

Dripo Cold Brew Coffee Maker Makes A New Type of Coffee

July 25, 2017 by dadofdivas Leave a Comment

Dripo Cold Brew Coffee Maker Makes A New Type of Coffee

 

About the Drippo Cold Brew Coffee Maker 

Most cold brew coffee makers require waiting at least 12 hours, often up to 24, before a cup of coffee can be enjoyed.

Dripo Cold Brew Coffee Maker Makes A New Type of Coffee

Using the Dripo system is simple. A favorite ground coffee is placed in the middle coffee container. A paper filter is set on top of the grounds to aid in even water distribution during brewing. The coffee container is set into the bottom tumbler and then screwed into the top water container. Ice and cold water are added to the water container and the entire system is secured with the screw on lid. Water drips from the water container into the coffee grounds, through a stainless steel micro filter, and into the tumbler. In about two hours, the brewing process is finished and the cold brew coffee can be enjoyed. Coffee drinkers have the option of drinking their brew black, adding ice, water, or a milk product to the cold brew.

Dripo Cold Brew Coffee Maker Makes A New Type of Coffee

Many coffee drinkers prefer cold brew over traditional brew methods that require hot water because cold brewing methods yield a coffee that has lower acidity and a less bitter taste. Dripo makes the process of creating cold brew coffee easier and faster. The closed system eliminates the potential for the system to be knocked over and spilled. And, a cup brewed in the morning can be enjoyed by the time someone reaches their desk at work or as an afternoon pick-me-up instead of waiting until the next day or paying more at a coffee shop.

 

Dripo is BPA free and will brew 10 ounces of coffee per use. It is available for $34.95 now at http://www.getdripo.com.

Dripo Cold Brew Coffee Maker Makes A New Type of Coffee

A couple of Dripo Tips

  1. Cold brew takes longer to brew than conventional hot coffee, however the Dripo can whip up a fresh cup of cold brew in just a few hours (not days like other systems).
  2. For best flavor, after placing your favorite coffee grounds into the coffee section, lightly wet them and then place a Dripo paper filter on top (this aids in water dispersion).

Dripo Cold Brew Coffee Maker Makes A New Type of Coffee

Keep your Dripo dripping – if you find it’s taking longer than 2 to 2.5 hours to complete the dripping cycle, follow these tips;

 

  1. Using hot soapy water, scrub the dripping mechanism in the top water section with a stiff brush. Rinse thoroughly and you should be good to go.
  2. When assembling the Dripo, just lightly screw the top water section on to ensure adequate airflow. Sometimes if it is too tight, the pressure can impact functionality.

September 3, 2015 by dadofdivas Leave a Comment

iCoffee

Walking into the office I usually can smell the coffee brewing from a mile away. Lately though this smell has become less and less frequent as there have been cutbacks and my employer no longer provides coffee for free. That being said, I still would love a great cup of coffee in the convenience of my office for the morning or early afternoon pick-me up, and the iCoffee Opus Brewer is the perfect machine to provide you just that.

iCoffee

iCoffee

iCoffee

What was so great about this coffee maker is that it works with all K-Cups and K-compatible cups. No longer are you made to conform to a specific brand or type of cup to fit your machine. This was perfect as there were some brands of local coffee that I really wanted to try but could not based on the machines at my fingertips.

iCoffee

Outside of this, the machine also comes with it’s own ecofriendly reusable k-cup, which will allow you to bring in your favorite blend or even add in any special mix-ins that will make your coffee that much better. Even if you are not a coffee drinker, this also will allow you to make a great cup of tea and even infuse it with fresh mint leaves or ginger to give your tea that much more of a kick to start your day off great!

iCoffee

One of the other unique things about the iCofee model is that each iCoffee single serve model is equipped with Burrows’ patented SpinBrew™ Technology that lets users brew their favorite flavors for an impossibly smooth cup of coffee without sacrificing convenience. This SpinBrew™ Technology was cool as it allowed me to simply spin the dial and mark off the exact strength of the 4-12 ounce cup that I am making (in .5 ounce increments)  – WOW, talk about taste control!

iCoffee

As the father of two girls, I could not forget about them. Whe the iCoffee machine they also can get a treat. Using the iCoffee machine I was able to make then a great cup of hot chocolate and with the reusable k-cup you can bring in your favorite mix too and make it extra special.

iCoffee

In the end the iCoffee machine brings you great convenience and power for the coffee and non-coffee drinkers alike. I was very impressed with the flexibility and capabilities of this machine thus far and believe that you will be too.

About Brooklyn Bean Roastery

These are from three guys from Brooklyn who love coffee. They grew up with an appreciation for quality, originality, and local pride, and they based their company on those values. What they’re saying is… they demand the best of everything and don’t hesitate to tell you what’s what.

Roastery is the first independently owned, single-serve coffee company using ‘Roast2Cup’ technology, a process that ensures the best cup of coffee every time you brew. Not your everyday cuppa Joe, see?

Unwavering Quality

Brooklyn Beans uses five separate, important quality-control checks are performed with every batch they make:

  1. Visual inspection – only the best coffee beans make the initial cut.
  2. Supervisor-monitored grinding – A little secret: if it’s too coarse, it won’t brew properly; if it’s too fine, the coffee gets bitter.
  3. Portion quality control – precisely the right amount is packed to ensure the best brew every time.
  4. Filled and sealed pods are individually hand-checked for perfection.
  5. Brewed coffee samples are consistently taken for aroma and taste testing checks (they admit, this is their favorite part of the job!)

At Brooklyn Beans Roastery, they’re not happy unless your last cup of coffee is as good as the first one of the day.

 

 

My Take on the Coffee

I received a sampler box of variety pack to see what the hype was all about and see if it was as good as I had heard in the past. For the past week I have been working through the eight different varieties to see what I think and let me tell you, I am very impressed with what I have come to find. The coffee is top notch and with the vast array of samples including flavors of:

  • Boardwalk Blend
  • Breakfast Blend
  • Boardwalk Blend
  • Brooklyn Bridge
  • Cinnamon Subway
  • Colombian
  • Coney Island Caramel
  • Corner Donut Shop
  • Cyclone
  • Express-O
  • French Roast
  • Fuhgeddaboutit
  • Hazelnut
  • Maple Sleigh
  • O-Fudge
  • Vanilla Skyline

As you can see there is a HUGE variety here for any coffee lover in this Brooklyn Bean Roastery assortment pack. Best of all was the flavor as each was unique, but they gave you wonderful flavor for each.

I personally liked the Coney Island Caramel & Breakfast Blend the most out of all of them. The Coney Island Caramel had a slight sweetness, but also was smooth and went down better than other caramel blends I have tried in the past and the Breakfast Blend was a light roasted coffee, and was a perfect way for me to start out my day.

I have been sharing my coffee with others, and while they do not always agree with the same coffee favorites that I like the most, they still agree that this brand is a great one and that it offers wonderful flavor and quality for the price!

Want to get some yourself you can find this Brooklyn Bean Roastery variety pack over at Amazon!

Love Coffee? See The Best Single Serve Cappuccino Makers

January 23, 2014 by dadofdivas Leave a Comment

We are becoming connoisseurs of coffee slowly but very definitely surely. It has never been easier to get a great cup of Joe. Artisan coffee shops are popping up everywhere serving independently sourced, organic chalices of treacle-black goodness.

 

But sometimes the thought of hauling yourself out the front door for a caffeine hit seems to much to ask. If you are that type of person then there are loads of new coffee machines on the market that can serve you beautiful coffee in the comfort of your own home.

 

I have picked out my favorite machines on the market. Whether it is for you or as a Valentines Day gift, I recommend you look into these three. They are:

cuisinart buona tazza

3) Cuisinart Buona Tazza Super Auto Single Serve Coffee Maker – $599.99

Source

 

This really is an all singing, all dancing coffee machine. And I would hope so too with a price tag like that. The look of the machine isn’t great to be honest and it is a bit on the big side for my liking. In terms of easy to make, tasty coffee I have no complaints. This is marketed as a home-owned machine as opposed to for cafés and so seems a bit on the pricey side to me.

delonghi ec155

2) DeLonghi EC155Espresso and Cappuccino Maker – $79.99

Source

 

A coffee maker that strips things back to the basics. Good coffee made simple. Unfortunately it’s not as simple as the machine above. You do have to froth your own milk in this version. But at a fraction of the price, who’s complaining? Not me. It creates a nice silky espresso. Again in terms of looks it’s certainly no David Beckham.  But then who cares how it looks when underneath is such a great performer.

nescafé dolce gusto

1) Nescafe Dolce Gusto Genio Coffee Maker – $129.99

Source

 

This really is my standout winner. A modern and sleek looking machine that produces great quality coffee time after time. The freshness is never an issue nor is convenience. Just simply pop a capsule of your chosen coffee flavor (there is a wide variety from which to choose) and hey, presto, the coffee is made. Perfectly smooth and easy to use, you will be served beautifully hot and smooth coffees every time. A touch more expensive than the De Longhi machine above, but well worth the investment in time and energy saved over a period of months or years.

 

Coffee makers have come in all shapes, sizes and varieties over the past few years. Be sure to get an intuitive and intelligent machine like the Genio machine from Dolce Gusto. What is your favorite coffee maker? Let me know!

This Morning Was One That Required Starbucks #Via #LifeofDad

August 9, 2013 by dadofdivas 1 Comment

Starbucks Via

 photo disclaimer_zpsaa1cb05b.jpg

I was paid by Life of Dad, LLC to be an entrant in a contest with Stabucks #Via

This Morning Was One That Required Starbucks #Via #LifeofDad
This was one of those mornings that you just have to have caffeine. My youngest had awoke at around 3AM and J-Mom and I heard her calling for us. J-Mom took first stab, but Diva-PJ was having none of it, and would not fall back asleep… so my 4:00 J-Mom came back down. By 4:45 Diva-PJ still had not fallen asleep and I was up (even though I had been up the whole time) to try my hand at getting her back to sleep. After an hour of laying with her she still was not asleep and I threw in the towel saying – I have to get ready for work, and in my mind I was saying – I need caffeine to get through the day.  Thus for me starting with the ease of using a Starbucks Via made perfect sense.

I even made a video about it here – http://instagram.com/p/cyiKhZBzcA/

Do you ever have these moments yourself? If so, share one and you can win some cool prizes thanks to Life of Dad and Starbucks. Go to the following link for all of the information on this great contest: starbucksvia.lifeofdad.com

 

Starbucks Via

Starbucks Via was so easy to make as all you need is hot water and you are golden. You can doll up your coffee any way you want it and then go from there. What’s even better is that with this Starbucks product I don’t have to leave home to get it!

My thanks to Life of Dad for setting up a great contest to share the moments when as Dads we need a Starbucks – for me this morning was a perfect example!

Father’s Day Gift Idea – Buy Him a Keurig! #dadchat

June 13, 2013 by dadofdivas 1 Comment

Keurig-K75-700x700All opinions expressed in this Keurig review are my own and not influenced in any way by Keurig.  Any product claim, statistic, quote or other representation about a product or service should be verified with the manufacturer or provider. Please refer to this site’s Terms of Use  for more information. I have been compensated or given a product free of charge, but that does not impact my views or opinions.

I have just started to enjoy coffee (at least somewhat) lately, but have been more of a tea fan for many years. Thus, while I have not had a Keurig system in the past, I have bought them for other family members and have used them from time to time and I have to say I have been completely amazed at how easy these are to use and to work with. The piece that is always amazing to me is how quickly you can have the drink that you want. In just about a minute you have a freshly brewed drink and there is so little mess which is always a perk.

The other amazing thing about this system and the keurig brand is the whole K-Cup system. You go to the market these days and every brand now has K-Cups and you can find just about any type of drink you can imagine from coffee to tea hot chocolate and more – the Keurig K75 Platinum Brewing System offers it all.

The Keurig Platinum Brewing System brews a perfect cup of coffee, tea, hot cocoa or iced beverage at the touch of a button. With an award-winning design, this brewer features a blue, backlit LCD display that allows you to program water temperature, set the digital clock, Auto On/Off and your favorite cup size. With the choice of five cup sizes, the Platinum brewer offers a removable drip tray to accommodate travel mugs.

Features:

  • Fully Programmable
  • Choice of 5 cup sizes (4 oz., 6 oz., 8 oz., 10 oz. and 12 oz.)
  • Removable 72 oz. water reservoir
  • Quiet Brew Technology
  • Energy Savings Mode – Auto On/Off
  • Includes water filter handle and 1 charcoal filter

kuerig

Outside of the system itself there are a ton of gadgets and add-ons that you can also buy for your system itself. So if you want to super impress dad, get him not only the system itself, but through in a variety of K-Cups, the Carousel Tower and any other fun things you can think of. Us dads love our technology and the system alone is technology laden, but we also love to tinker and having all the toys and add-ons always assists with this!

So go and get a Keurig for Dad today and enjoy a cup of Joe or a glass of iced tea with dad – because at the end of the day, spending time together is what’s most important and if you can do that with a great beverage in hand, all the better!
