On Tricks With Coffee

At work we have a Keurig coffee machine. Basically, you take your cup, put it under the spout, drop a coffee packet thing in the slot, press a button, and the machine makes a single cup of coffee.

Frankly, the coffee’s not that good. And it only makes half a cup, really.

Today, tried a little experiment. There’s also a hot chocolate machine. On the lowest setting, the machine will make a four ounce cup. What if I made four ounces of hot chocolate, then followed it with coffee out of the Keurig machine? Voila, an instant mochachino.

It actually worked out pretty well. Hot chocolate, a spoonful of sugar, and the Irish Cream coffee. I think I can be happy with this. 🙂
