" ... Breakfast + coffee + morning drive all at once! ... "
" ... I got the café vanilla flavor & the taste reminded me of those bottled Frappuccino drinks from Starbucks. ... "
" ... I got the coffiest (mocha) flavor. ... "
" ... I tried the Coffiest, and it’s mildly pleasant, innocuously bland sort of a coffee flavor. ... "
" ... My favorite flavor by far though is the Cacao, but it's nice to switch it up and have caffeine in the morning. ... "
" ... Tastes a lot like coffee/espresso. ... "
" ... The flavor is pretty good and the caffeine means I can skip my morning cup of coffee. ... "
" ... It has no authentic tea flavor and is more like cinnamon milk. ... On the topic of decaf/regular though, I would LOVE to see a decaf cafe vanilla as the flavor is just astounding! ... "
