New England Coffee: Review & Giveaway, CLOSED!

CLOSED!

It's no secret that Liz and I are coffee fiends. We love it. My Nanie had warm, sweet coffee in my bottle... and 31 years later, she was fixing it for Liz, too!

So you can imagine how delighted we were to receive a lovely sample box of New England Coffee.

I was especially tickled to discover bags of the Blueberry Cobbler and the Decaf Hazlenut Creme.

Liz was over-joyed to find her beloved French Vanilla.

Needless to say, we were in coffee heaven! And... the brewing began!

First up came the French Vanilla and it was so smooth and so comforting. No need to add much sugar or cream -- it has a nice, light roast -- mellow. We both liked it immensely.

Now, for the Blueberry Creme we had very special plans! We wanted it C*O*L*D! So, we clicked the link over to New England Coffee's 'sister' site, Try Me Iced and followed the directions for brewing and making iced coffee!

We did sweeten our coffee while it was still hot (so the sugar would dissolve). We covered and refrigerated it overnight. Next day, we put it into the blender with milk, a cup of vanilla yogurt, about 1/2 cup fresh blueberries, and ice chips and blended away! Blueberry Creme Coffee Smoothie!
Ooohhhh... yummmie! Coffee Shops... eat your heart out!

You can find several other coffee recipes on the website!

New England Coffee has been roasting coffee since 1918, when they first opend their doors at Milk and Broad Streets in Boston. They continue their fine tradition today at 100 Charles Street in Malden, Massachusetts.
