LIFE SAVING! LOVE IT! Read this for a few ways I make my drinks as well!
I seriously love these sooooo much. I worked at starbucks for a few years until recently, so I really miss my free partner beverages or even just the discount. Thank goodness I took my barista skills with me though. ;) I honestly don't care for most of the Nespresso brand pods I have tried, I also just hate paying for them too, probably because I just don't like the taste.. though these are the same price IT IS SO WORTH IT! IT'S SO DELICIOUS. I am seriously obsessed with these! Not to mention, I save money now that I don't spend $5 at Starbucks per day.. the price for 50 pods is equivalent to 6-7 drinks at starbucks. Depending how many shots of espresso you use per drink, this could be like 25-50 drinks!! I just have so many great things to say. Obviously, I HIGHLY recommend these! If anyone even really read this or cares enough to about how I make just a few of my drinks here it is: Iced Caramel Macchiato: I buy the starbucks macchiato creamer, the Ghirardelli caramel sauce (not as amazing as the starbucks caramel sauce but still delicious), milk or almond milk (I switch back and forth), and obviously these pods! I put some of the caramel sauce in at the bottom of the cup to make it sweet, add 2 shots of espresso to that and mix it so it melts the sauce, then just a small amount of the creamer, the rest with regular milk, and add the ice! ****I will put drizzle on top sometimes or even use a little skim milk & froth it with a hand held milk frother for cold foam, maybe a little salt with the foam for a little salted caramel vibe! Iced Mocha I use the Hershey's chocolate syrup, milk, espresso, and ice. I only put a little chocolate & add 2 shots of espresso to mix it, then add the milk and ice. I will taste it before the ice usually to see if I want more chocolate. Iced white mocha/ caramel white mocha: I used the starbucks white mocha creamer, milk, Ghirardelli caramel sauce, espresso, and ice. I usually just put a little white mocha creamer in the cup and add 2 shots of espresso/ I will put the caramel sauce at the bottom first, then espresso, then creamer IF I want the caramel white mocha. Then of course just the milk and ice. Also.. just super simple and not as sweet. I really like to drink a hot or iced latte with a little of the silk brand vanilla almond milk creamer & espresso. Of course this isn't super fancy or anything but it is very delicious! Hopefully someone actually reads my long book here and tries one of these ~copycat starbucks drinks~ I made up and loves it as much as I do. :)
